MEET THE LINEUP:
Lawrence Leung – Comedian, writer, director, actor, Lawrence has turned many of his obsessions into one-man comedy shows and those one-man shows into TV series. In Lawrence Leung’s Unbelievable he investigated supernatural phenomena such as aliens, psychic powers, magic, and ghosts – and why some people feel the need to believe in these things.
Watson – This uber-slick comedy trio are known for their fast-paced, cleverly written sketches, especially the slightly spooky ones (they once staged an entire horror-comedy show at Old Melbourne Gaol). Featuring Liam Ryan (Head Writer on The Project ), Tegan Higginbotham ( Have You Been Paying Attention?, Whose Line Is it Anyway? ) and Adam McKenzie , prepare yourselves for quick-witted sketches, hilarious characters and out of control capering.
'A rare level of theatrical brilliance' ★★★★½ The Age
Tegan Higginbotham – Brimming with energy and top-notch jokes, Tegan is our host for the night. She is an award-winning comedian, actor and screenwriter. You may have spotted her on the big screen in Oddball – the movie about a dog that guards little penguins (she was the baddie) and you are definitely going to spot her in the upcoming Stan/Screen Australia original series Gnomes .
Bonus set: Gavin Baskerville – With his dark-edged wit and unique takes on topics from the mundane to the ridiculous, Gav is an absolute joke machine; puns, gags, clever wordplay, thigh slappers, Dad jokes, rib-ticklers and more.
