Brisbane Powerhouse

SHOW TIME:

7:00PM

Thank you for reading my blurb. I have told over a thousand jokes and received countless rounds of applause and bouts of laughter. Not to mention the smiles I’ve procured. I hope you attend this festival and I hope that of all the shows in the festival, you choose to attend my show. That would mean the world to me. And by the way, the show’s going to be fantastic. Everyone is telling me that this is gonna be my year and I am feeling very optimistic about how it’s going to go. I have appeared on the TV show Taskmaster New Zealand and was once asked to be in a movie (I found the movie’s concept to be disgusting so I didn’t respond to the email). Have a great festival, Paul.

Direct from Cripple Creek, Colorado, country music legend Wilson Dixon returns to the festival circuit for the first time in years. Known to many as the greatest country singer Cripple Creek has ever produced - as well as the only country singer Cripple Creek has ever produced - whichever way you look at it, it’s a pretty good achievement.

"As a comedian I’m a passionate defender of free speech, unless that free speech is used to mildly criticize the obviously bad things that I’m saying, in which case it's cancel culture and now I’m the victim. I would also like to take this opportunity to say that it’s important to think about my mental health."

Nominated for “Most Outstanding Show” at the 2023 Melbourne Comedy Festival.

She mostly grew up in between Bandung, Indonesia and Canberra, Australia. She currently live in Brisbane because it’s warm and she has brittle bones.

Tom Cashman is flying to New Zealand as we speak, with a new hour of stand up that may or may not include the secret to happiness. You might know Tom from TikTok, you might know him from Taskmaster Australia, or you might be grappling with the idea of him for the first time right now as you read this. It’s pointless to continue guessing your mental state. But if you like the mental state of laughing, you won’t miss this show.

Paul makes fun of the French and they love it. Or they tell him to f*** off back to England! After 3 sell-out bilingual world tours, Paul shares his story of being a British expat in France, this time 100% in English. Hold onto your berets! Paul Taylor is a British comedian who has been living in France since 2009. His trademark is poking fun at the French and the French lifestyle, as well as at himself, by sharing his offbeat expat experiences, including linguistic misunderstandings and cultural mix-ups. Paul’s online videos now have hundreds of millions of views, and he has over 1.5 million followers on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

Ray O’Leary (Taskmaster, Have You Been Paying Attention?) pulled a man from a wrecked car and as the man lay dying, he used his last ounce of strength to ask Ray (Best Show Nominee at the 2024 Melbourne International Comedy Festival) to tell his children that he loved them. And Ray (who sold out tours to Melbourne, Edinburgh, and more) will get around to it, but first, he has to do this comedy show.

SHOW TIMES: Thu 15 May, Fri 16 May, Sat 17 May - 8pm  Sun 18 May - 7pm

I’ve heard the expression ‘Stop being so dramatic” my whole life, but only now, at the culturally relevant age of 34, am I ready to address it and face these drama queen allegations head-on. Please join me, Chris Parker, for an hour of high-intensity, feverishly paced and dizzyingly expressive comedy. Sure, I’ve cried in every speech I’ve ever had to deliver publicly, and yes, there may have been a situation this year where I slept on my neck weirdly and bought myself an unnecessary neck brace. Still, I’m desperate to prove that I’m really chill and down to earth. So, what better way to get you to understand that than with a one-man variety hour spectacle chill stand-up comedy hour? 

 
Building on this momentum, 2024 saw Chris host the New Zealand Comedy Festival Galas, tour his latest show, Give Me One Good Reason Why I Shouldn't Throw My Phone Off This Bridge, to full houses throughout Australia and New Zealand, make his prime-time Australian TV debut on Thank God You’re Here (where he won the episode), and release the highly anticipated second season of Double Parked. 
 
NZ Herald - “By the time the show ends, you will have sore sides from laughing”  

***** - Time Out "Chris Parker is the real deal, a brilliant comedian who will leave you scream-laughing”

SHOW TIMES: Thu 22, Fri 23, Sat 24 - 7pm. Sun 25 - 6pm

My name is Becky Lucas and this is the blurb for my stand up comedy show. I am the only female Australian comedian to have performed on the Conan O’Brien show in the US, I’ve hosted the MICF gala, I’ve performed my solo show at the Sydney Opera house and written my very own book called 'Acknowledgements'.  
 
The thing is, I’ve listed my credits here for almost ten years and to be honest, I’m not even sure if anyone has ever read them. I don’t want to include quotes from newspapers about how funny I am because who cares? 
 

Show times: Thu 22 May & Fri 23 May - 6:30pm, Sat 24 May 5pm & 6:30pm, Sun 25 May - 5:30pm

Ever wanted to know what your high school teacher actually thought of you? Or whether she believed your excuses? Or what she wanted to say to the Year 8 boy who refused to leave the class? Well, you’re going to want to see this show. Before Bron Lewis was one of Australia’s most promising new comedians, she was a high school teacher for almost a decade. It was an era where she both nurtured young hearts, encouraged kids to be brilliant, but she also made some lifelong enemies. You’ll hear more about them this show than the nerds. 
 
Bron became a teacher because she hates learning - she would rather saw off her own legs then learn a new card game, and in her opinion, who ever coined the term ‘board game’ was bang on. Bron raises the question: what happens when someone tries to avoid learning at all costs? They teach. Sit down, and get ready to learn. 
 
“Lewis has a skilful, natural delivery, in control of her material and holding the audience rapt without seeming to make an effort..” - Chortle 

MICF Best Show Nominee, SCF Director’s Choice Winner, and Bad Boy of Musical Comedy* (*self proclaimed), Cameron James is back with his biggest rock n roll show yet. Join Cam as he digs through the record crate of his life, pinballing from hilariously true stories, to cutting cultural commentary, to full blown pop songs. Broken Records is a musical comedy show about what it means to be alive right f***ing here, right f***ing now. As seen on The Gala, Spicks & Specks, Guy Mont-Spelling Bee, Bump & more.
