  • ADAM HILLS Comedian/Writer/Broadcaster/Presenter
    ADAM HILLS Comedian/Writer/Broadcaster/Presenter Adam Hills is one of Australia’s best-known comedians, mainly as the five- time Gold Logie nominated host of his two hit ABC TV series – the music quiz show Spicks and Specks and his unique take on the late night talk show, Adam Hills Tonight. Already a gold-plated star in Australia, Adam has now taken the UK by storm with his own talk show on Channel Four, The Last Leg. Originally a one-off series for the 2012 London Paralympics, the Poms loved him so much it has been on air ever since! In 2020, Adam also managed to sneak home to reboot ‘Spicks’ for a group of specials airing in 2021 on the ABC. When Adam isn’t dominating the global TV landscape, he is usually somewhere in the world with a mic in hand doing his day job – globetrotting stand-up comedian. His latest show, Shoes Half Full, was performed at the 2021 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the 2021 Sydney Comedy Festival. "Hills delivers stand up so effortlessly brilliant you wonder why some comedians even get out of bed" The Guardian, London “If you cannot enjoy Adam Hills you cannot have a pulse. Four Stars” The Scotsman “Hills’s wit is incisively dry and sharp and his observations are bitingly precise” Sunday Herald Sun “[his] interaction with the audience proved so fruitful that they were reluctant to release him back on to the stage” ★★★★★The Scotsman “an Adam Hills show is always a festival highlight…with real weight, wit and purpose behind his contagious positivity” Chortle (UK) TELEVISION 2021 ABC TV Spicks & Specks

  • Top Pick Thursday 20 July 8.30Pm World Premiere
    1 Top Pick Thursday 20 July 8.30pm World Premiere Pulse It’s eight years since high-flying financial analyst Frankie’s failing kidneys landed her at death’s door, and a transplant offered her a second chance. Now a doctor in her second year, it’s Frankie’s (Claire van der Boom) first day in a Renal rotation, where she wants to earn a permanent spot working under Renal boss, Chad Berger (Owen Teale), the very doctor who saved her life. But for Frankie especially, a hospital can be a dangerous world. Though uniquely qualified to understand her patients as a transplant recipient herself, she is also vulnerable to infection, and her compassion for others may very well endanger her own life. Frankie’s best friend, Lou Tannis (Andrea Demetriades), is training to be a surgeon, but is confronting the limitations in her own cutthroat field, and the boys’ club of surgical training teams. Will her fling with hotshot surgeon Rowan Mitri (Blessing Mokgohloa) help or hinder her progress? Female surgeon, Maggie Cutter (Susie Porter), is Lou’s hardest taskmaster. But will she become the mentor Lou needs? Meanwhile, Frankie and Lou’s housemate Tabb (Arka Das) is on his first day as an intern, terrified that he won’t stand up to the pressures, particularly when faced with his prickly, wounded-warzone cardio registrar Eli Nader (Liam McIntyre). Frankie correctly diagnoses the mystery behind patient Zoe’s (Melissa Bonne) symptoms: Zoe needs a new heart, but is soon in strife after sending Shawn (Daniel Amalm) home without his life-saving dialysis.

Making comedy and making people laugh is the ultimate education. In the process of thinking about and creating a comic routine/show you use critical thinking, you engage with audiences as you try out those ideas. You write, you improvise, you consider intercultural understanding (different cultures can find different things funny…or not), and consider what might offend or be appropriate. You might want to satirise or subvert common understandings, you engage with BIG ideas and consider who you are in this crazy world. You make art and you perform art. But wait, there’s more…when you engage with comedy you actually have to think about your sense of self, your identity, who you are and what you have to say. You ask others to listen to your ideas and stories, you take risks, you build confidence, you dare to fail, dare to be brave, you laugh and you cry with laughter.

  • Appeared in - the Adelaide Review
    MarchFebruary 2001 2004 Comedy Preview Appeared in - The Adelaide Review Adelaide Fringe Before television re-discovered Australian humour and FM breakfast executives began strip-mining the stand-up industry, comedy at the Adelaide Fringe was all one big lucky dip where Funny Stories, LosTrios Ringbarkus, the Doug Anthony Allstars, Flacco, the Jet Black Cowboy and the Castanet Club could all be found. Now we know our comics through Rove and ABC vehicles like The Glass House so many comedians already have a profile and a pedigree. Looking through the list for 2004 there are quite a few household names and they will be rewarded for their familiarity with queues around the block and standing room only signs. Fringe comedy is always the most popular and, one would hope, the most commercially successful category in the festival. But maybe it’s starting to get a little tired. I have to say there are notable absences this year and the diversity, as in many parts of our cultural ecosystem, is starting to dwindle just a little. Lets start with the good news. Some legends are listed here. With Gud, Paul McDermott presents his patented line in vehement wit, mixed with music from his own fine pipes and the talents of Cameron Bruce and Mick Moriarty. Dave Hughes comes out of the glass house and back to his true calling in the colosseum of stand-up and Rod Quantock, the most reasonable, funny and politically corrosive commentator in the country will provide therapeutic counsel back at the Nova. Also, Lano and Woodley, are back with the The Island a new show undoubtedly garnished with all the pratfalls, regressed physicality and social incompetence which has made them hilarious and irresistible in the past.
