Ever wondered what makes comedians tick? Or why they can’t stop talking about their mums? Finally, a show that puts funny people on the couch – literally!
Join award-winning science comedian Robyn Perkins and actual real-life psychologist Dr. Carolyne Keenan for the most entertaining therapy sessions you’ll ever witness. In this trial run of Shrink Wrapped, watch as brave (and thus far undiagnosed) guest comedians perform their best material before submitting themselves to gentle psychological probing in front of a live audience. Don’t worry; we’ve got more safe words than a BDSM convention!
Discover how childhood trauma becomes comedy gold, and see what happens when you mix professional analysis with professional attention-seeking.
Don’t miss this hilarious, unique blend of psychology, stand-up, and people who probably should have dealt with their issues privately.
What’s a Work In Progress/Preview show?
Progress and Preview shows allow established acts to test new material and develop their longer-form solo shows for TV appearances, tours and festivals. As an audience member, you’ll be helping them shape their shows and find out what works and what doesn’t, as they will often be trying fresh new material and ideas alongside their best jokes!
Shows are normally free or low cost, but you can make a voluntary donation at the end of the show if you enjoyed it and wish to contribute to the comics and the venue to support us and live comedy.
Please Note:
Latecomers may not be permitted. Please arrive before the show’s start time.
