After sell-out performances around the country of her award-winning “An Unexpected Variety Show”, Queensland’s beloved musical comedienne with a passion for improvisation is back in “my home away from home!” Adelaide with a brand new show…and this time, she’s bringing a band AND some sassy singing ladies with her!
Acapella swing gals Betty and the Betties (featuring Jenny’s sister, Angeline Wynter) are the resident ‘house band’ in this part improvised, part scripted, all wonderlandish celebration of the awesomely ridiculous, and the ridiculously awesome. From pint-sized David Bowie costumes, to calorie-free fairy floss, to disciplining children through the power of dance, join Jenny and the Betties as they invite you to forget your worries for an hour and enjoy the wonderland that is: ‘being very silly’!
About Jenny: Jenny has trained in and performed improvised comedy with some of the USA and Canada’s greatest teachers, including Second City, Loose Moose Theatre and more. Since starting out in comedy in 2005, she has become known for her spontaneous, energetic and interactive style and her trademark improvised songs based on audience suggestion: no two shows are ever the same!
“(I)…am not exaggerating when I say that she possesses a rare quality – a combination of stage presence, wit, intelligence and honesty – that I don’t come across too often.” Michael Pollock, musical director of Second City LA, credits include The Drew Carey Show, The Tonight Show.
“…a highlight of Melbourne’s Fringe Festival. Wynter …captivates her audience, both male and female, from start to finish.” Beat Magazine.
“..a very funny, talented lady… I hope that Brisbane appreciates what a treasure it has.” Steve Kaplan, USA comedy coach and creator of HBO Workspace (produced Jack Black, Nathan Lane and Nia Vardalos)
