Episodes (6)
1. Wil Anderson - FIRE AT WIL
Aired 24 March 2017 • 60 min
Five-time Winner – People’s Choice Award Melbourne Comedy Festival. Wil is one of the most consistently excellent stand-up comedians of his generation, this is one world-class act you won’t want to miss.
2. Celia Pacquola - THE LOOKING GLASS
Aired 31 March 2017 • 60 min
The Looking Glass is a critically acclaimed solo voyage around 30-something womanhood in the 21st century, as perceived through the glittering telescope that is Celia’s breathtakingly funny hyperacuity.
3. Tom Ballard - THE WORLD KEEPS HAPPENING
Aired 7 April 2017 • 60 min
What’s the deal with man’s inhumanity to man? This is an hour of dynamite stand-up about how everything is sinister and confusing and on the verge of collapse. Tune in and have a good old-fashioned laugh about it while you still can.
4. Sam Simmons - STOP BEING SILLY
Aired 14 April 2017 • 60 min
From the brain that brought you millionaire cats eating Viennetta, gypsy cuddles and nanna wanks, comes a brand spanking new One Night Stan, from mind blending internal self-hatred, paranoia and comedy, because you have to put comedy in it.
5. Judith Lucy - ASK NO QUESTIONS OF THE MOTH
Aired 21 April 2017 • 60 min
A truly awful year for Judith always leads to a great show for her fans and this show was written after one which was magnificently terrible. Think death and early menopause and you’re in the ballpark. See the show that sold out a national tour.
6. Tom Gleeson - GREAT
Aired 28 April 2017 • 60 min
Are you going to watch my One Night Stan show? Yes? Great. Not watching? Your problem.
