With both content and delivery, Daniel Sloss is a genius. It's rare for a comedian to lecture about empathy yet be the most vulgar and hilarious person in the room. #micf #melbourne

The tragic life of Joseph Merrick has been given an absurdist and triumphant take in this Australian-made theatrical work. With its brilliant composition, exceptional performers, and well-placed comical punchlines, THE MARVELLOUS ELEPHANT MAN is an intimate musical that makes for a perfect night out. #marvellouselephantman #theatre #melbourne #micf

Loads of great comedy shows still to see before the festival finishes...

Fun tongue-in-cheek suggestion. The festival certainly is good for cheering anyone up.

oh hey any of youse going to #micf
i saw anna piper scott in adelaide last month and her show was really good, defs recommend

Saw Jordan Raskopoulos as my last #micf event this year, quite excellent, but now in massive autistic overload and wearing two sets of noise-cancelling headphones so I don’t tell my family to shut the hell up. It’s a me problem, they’re just being humans.

On Sunday night, as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, we attended the most holy Alex Hines in her superb "Juniper Wilde: Juniper Rising" show at ACMI. It's a sublime hot mess and I'm a total self-confessed "Wildling". If you ever get a chance to see this show, get on it. It's hilarious.

On the way across the street from the tram, I took this shot of the station all lit in rainbow. 😍

Saw @JosieLong last night and loved her call out to the anarcho-syndicalist crowd. Saw you, sister, it was groovy. You should all go see her at #micf for a gently manic and super cute evisceration of the ruling class.

Just caught Larry Dean at #micf . A great gig, had us in stitches 🤣

Groovy tram shot taken last night on the way to a Comedy Festival show at the Melbourne Town Hall. I love a crisp autumn night in the Melbourne CBD during festival time, has atmosphere.

I say, the venue for Sashi Perera comedy festival show, Endings, is fantastic. I swear I heard someone talking about where the archives are...

It's back! Love the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Will be reviewing a few shows in due course.

Can’t decide who to see at the comedy festival? This might help

If you’re at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival make sure to catch Kirsty Webeck - a good night of chuckles, ballet and seaweed. Not necessarily in that order. #micf #melbourne

Interesting profile of Indonesia's first female Muslim stand-up comedian, appearing at the Melbourne Comedy Festival 2023...
