Mick Meredith is one of Australia’s most in-demand comedians for the past 20 years and one of the country’s leading musical comedy acts with appearances all over Australia and internationally from PNG to Egypt.

With over a quarter century on stage Mick Meredith is part joke teller and part guitar slinging song monster. His shows are a rapid-fire comical commentary of stories, songs, gags and guitarings.

Mick began his musical to comedy journey at the legendary Sandringham Hotel, Newtown in the 80’s playing in rock bands before switching to comedy in the 90’s. He has appeared on film, TV and radio including The Footy Show, Mornings with Kerri Ann, Thursday Night Live, Joker Poker, The Comedy Channel, Stand-up Australia, Triple M, 2GB, 2DAY FM The Sydney Cracker Festival Gala, The Darren Sanders Show, Talking Comics and feature films Pitbulls, Bloody Hell and Footy Legends.

 

Emma Zammit began her standup comedy career in early 2008 after her sister decided it was time to move her one-liners out of the lounge room and enrolled her in a standup comedy writing course for the sake of family harmony.

After graduation, she was inspired to work the hard yards and tighten her comedy antics in Sydney and Perth, and she has never looked back.

Emma’s relaxed and relatable style has been a hit with audiences in comedy clubs and at corporate functions. Her musings on parenthood, people and everyday life make her a highly entertaining performer. Recently, she’s been the support act for Jimeoin at his Brisbane shows, and has been featured on Channel 10’s Drunk History and Waltzing Jimeoin.

 

You ever seen a man’s brain backfire like a Datsun 120Y on stage? Because that’s what Jack Knight’s comedy is; a deranged soup-drinking maniac in the middle of a perpetual mental hoo-roo.

Having supported the likes of Mel Buttle, Sam Campbell, and Dan Rath, Jack Knight has cemented himself early into cult comedian status, and is admired amongst his peers as one of Australian comedy’s most unique emerging voices.

Catch him on stage before he drives a Ford Falcon into the Barrier Reef and is never seen again.
