15.01.2022 Sure, my new show The Ballad of John Tilt Animus combines my love of non-linear storytelling with metaphors and character building, but I also laughed when I read this title about nut cheese. The Melbourne International Comedy Festival season begins soon: https://bit.ly/2teeeT2

10.01.2022 Frequent Shelvers! The Melbourne International Comedy Festival is just around the corner which means my new one person play, The Ballad of John Tilt Animus is on the way. Here is a handy guide to each show and remember, one show tells one story, all three tell one mega story. It’s like a Marvel movie except Nick Fury doesn’t arrive in an after credits scene to recruit me to the Avengers. 1. Three Dances: Witness our hero John Tilt Animus as he appears on a late-night TV... show at three points in his career and learns terrible truths about his career. And what is that noise playing in the background, slowly driving him insane? 2. In a Dark Wood: John has been found dead, with a gun in his hand and a note in an opened box that reads, Pretty funny, right? But which John is it? Is it the stand-up, the musical act or the impro guy? And why is everyone going to see Bohemian Rhapsody? 3. The Girl in the Song: John wakes in a place he doesn’t recognise, being interviewed by someone he doesn’t know. Every time he answers a question incorrectly, there will be consequences. But wait a second? I thought John was dead If you’re keen to see all three shows, you can save money on the bundle, just like the old days with The Shelf. I can guarantee you won’t see anything like John Tilt Animus this year. And can anyone else hear that circus like music playing in the background? Hmmmm Hammo Extra details here:

01.01.2022 Frequent Shelvers: the latest episode of Rue Lamarck by Tegan Higginbotham is available, delving into the Into the myth of the French Woman. From the idea that French Women Don’t Get Fat, to the countless generalizations about French Girl Style, French women’s attitudes and whether or not French women shave, The French Woman has been packaged up, shipped out and marketed to the world. But how much of this information is true? And could some of these myths actually be causing harm? https://apple.co/2XzAF2L
