I am working on putting together a networking brunch for our funny females to occur during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. At the moment we are aiming for late morning of Sunday 08 April 2012. Comedy is often not an easy career path, if it even gets enough momentum to be called a career. Sometimes [...]

Hey-o! A number of you have been asking about what gigs I’m booked for in 2011, and specifically if I am in the Melbourne Comedy Festival. Currently, I have no engagements because I’m working on a television comedy. Woohoo! I’m also out drumming up day-job type work. To participate in the comedy festival scene you [...]

Hey-o People! Dancing Dog Cafe is the up and coming venue for all sorts of performance arts. Come along and watch me do my silly poetry reading thing. This will be something of a retrospective with the majority of my spoken word from last year, plus the poetry aspect of my comedy festival show this [...]

Hey-o! The fast approaching gig is one I have with the Melbourne Fringe Festival. No, it’s not Spacerella, though my heart breaks over that bit of comedy fluttering off into the distance. I’m bringing Mbulu and Kiki to the Comedy Beast Magazine nights! Then, only a month later I’m being paid to read my doggerel [...]

Woohoo! The comedy festival has begun and I am in it! Strange Blessings is the story of the Blessington Community Variety Show.

It would be nice to have ONE standup venue gig, but the VAST MAJORITY of comedians are currently filling that card up before the comedy festival. Nevertheless, the poetry gigs are MARVELOUS! The people are great. The venues are relaxed. And let me tell you, the scene is vibrant with young people doing weird and [...]

I’m planning on hitting quite a few venues to promote my show for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. I will be performing bits of my show in order to get people excited. For those of you following my career, I deeply apologise for not letting you know about two performances I gave Friday and Saturday. [...]

Currently, I’m working like a mad woman to put together marketing, budget, insurance, etc plans in order to get a show together for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival next year. Monday I walked my feet to oblivion in 35C heat in order to check out a dozen potential venues around the city. But it will [...]

Hey! I have a Melbourne gig! And thus my style of mayhem gets its toe-hold in this city. MWUHAHA! Willow Tales Willow Bar 222 High Street, Northcote 8pm Wednesday 04 November I’ve also been hanging out at information nights about producing shows for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. So wish me luck. Peace and kindness, [...]
