The MardiGrass Comedy Show<\/h1>\n\n\n\n


7.30pm Saturday 6 May

This comedy show, like the MardiGrass festival\/rally itself, is an act of rebellion against injustice. Being there and having fun IS the protest. In a long tradition that rolls from a distant smokey past, your hosts Glover & Sorrensen will present yet another evening of stand-up comedy at its best. Join S, Alan, Steve and Mandy in an entertaining protest against insane government policies. See ya there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mandy<\/strong><\/em> is, well, Mandy. Funny as all get-out. Real as Fudge. Three acts, four friends, and 90 minutes of fun and facts, laughs and lampoons, jokes and jabs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Matty B’s style can only be described as casual, unashamed and very abstract. Rather than following the traditional model that most comedians use, where they have a loose narrative that ties the jokes together. It is this style of comedy that I don’t enjoy. The sequiturs are generally weak at best. Matty’s style is unapologetic and jumps from joke to joke in more of a stream of consciousness way, rather than anything that resembles a narrative. His humour is dark, twisted, vulgar (in the best kind of way), surreal and very abstract. This self acclaimed bogan hails from 100km inland from Newcastle.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

While her favourite material to deliver is targeted at the 15+ demographic, she has a wealth of observational material suitable for all ages. Vanesa enjoys pushing the boundaries and breaking down social norms, by saying those things women shouldn’t say in public, but we all think!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ari Matti started comedy in Melbourne, Australia, toured all around Asia and Europe after that. Also lived in Vancouver for a year and gigged in Seattle as well during that time.
