Comedy at the Darwin Festival

Darwin loves a good laugh, so the Festival has come prepared with a truly stellar line-up of very best comedians. She’s an effervescent bundle of laughs with questions about everything - Cal Wilson is coming to Darwin armed with a plethora of queries about Brussel sprouts, ambulances and everything in between. Catch Cal’s show Gifted Underachiever at The Lighthouse on Wednesday 14 August.

Nazeem Hussain has had a massive year: he became a dad, his sketch show, Orange Is The New Brown, began airing on Channel 7, he recorded his first Netflix special and to top it all off, he’s headed to Darwin Festival to joke about these things and more in his new show Basic Idiot. Don’t miss this night of witty, cutting and confronting comedy at The Lighthouse, Friday 9 and Saturday 10 August.

Local lady of laughs Amy Hetherington is set to share her precarious balance of infectious optimism and tales of Darwin’s total insanity in the award-winning Where They Hide The Crazy. This hilarious look at the very best and worst of Territory life takes place at Happy Yess, Tuesday 13 – Thursday 15 August.

After sold-out shows at Melbourne International Comedy Festival, two of Australia’s funniest First Nationers are bringing solid comedy gold to Darwin. As seen on Have You Been Paying Attention? and ABC Comedy’s Up Late, Dane Simpson with his hilarious dad jokes joins glorious cynic Matt Ford in Aborigi-LOL. This award-winning duo are putting the ‘rad’ in traditional at The Lighthouse on Sunday 18 August.
