By the time you read this the Melbourne International Comedy Festival will have been and gone for another year but thanks to Madman Entertainment, you can keep the chuckles rolling along with one of five comedy packs that includes the comedic stylings of Danny Bhoy, Josh Thomas, Tripod, Eddie Perfect and Fear of a Brown Planet.
Appearing at this year’s Sydney Comedy Festival, Danny Bhoy is one of Australia’s most beloved regular visiting comedians. These two DVDs capture him at his best, performing to sell out crowds at the Sydney Opera House and Melbourne’s historic Athenaeum Theatre. Both releases also feature a wealth a bonus materials – including festival Gala TV performances, bonus footage, hidden features and more.
There was something that everyone else seemed to know about Josh that Josh didn't know about Josh… That was until he got a boyfriend. And Josh seems to be the only one who’s surprised. After winning the national Raw Comedy final at the age of 17, then making the finals of Edinburgh’s So You Think You’re Funny and being nominated for a TV Week Logie Award, Josh became the youngest comedian ever nominated for the prestigious Barry Award for Most Outstanding Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival with this show, Surprise, which, conveniently, we have for you here to win as part of the prize pack.
Scod, Yon and Gatesy are Tripod – one of the most popular and prolific comedy acts working in Australia today. This DVD captures their show at the Woodford Folk Festival and showcases many of Tripod’s favourite songs and routines. In addition the DVD includes the hit of the Melbourne and Adelaide Comedy Festivals – How To Train An Attack Dog From Scratch – offering nearly 2.5 hours of trademark Tripod laughs and tunes.
Filmed at his sell-out Spiegletent show, Misanthropology captures the Helpmann Award-winning Eddie Perfect, composer and performer, at his best in a darkly satirical musical work executed as a kind of twisted social autopsy examining the stranger cultural rituals we find ourselves performing. The DVD includes a bonus songbook and three tracks from Eddie’s first show in 2005.
Leave your prejudice at the door. Comedians Aamer Rahman and Nazeem Hussain, AKA Fear Of A Brown Planet are not afraid to tackle the difficult topics of immigration, race relations, and the War on Terror head on. Uncompromising, ruthless and cheeky – this DVD is guaranteed to be more fun than a night in Guantanamo.
