Headliner: MICHAEL SHAFAR
Originally from Melbourne, Michael Schafar is now based in London where he has quickly become one of the most exciting new acts on the UK comedy circuit. He regularly performs at the country's biggest clubs where he gets to mock British people for their awful history and terrible food to their faces.
If you have lived in Australia, or even just visited there, you might already know Michael from his appearances on Network 10's The Project and Studio 10, ABC's Comedy Bites and triple j's Good Az Friday. Of course, traditional media is dead, so it's more likely that you might be one of his 100,000+ followers on social media or the 100+ million people who have seen his videos online. You may have also watched his debut special A(LIVE) on Amazon Prime or his most recent special Alright, Next Joke on YouTube.
"Shafar circumnavigates the line between edgy and offensive with beautiful finesse" The Age (Melbourne)
"He’s a brand of comedian that is getting rarer and rarer to come by these days, and if you’re among those who fear comedy has gotten too politically correct, this show will put those fears to rest." Time Out
"Shafar has a disarmingly relaxed approach and an intelligent sense of humour with a wildly inventive, darkly comic imagination." The Edinburgh Reporter
