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. -

In 2009, Colin returned to the festival stage with a part cabaret/part stand-up solo show, and has regularly appeared at MICF on his own and with others – notably teaming up with the hilarious David Collins from The Umbilical Brothers to tackle Gilbert and Sullivan in The 3 Mikados.

10 Comedians for $20 2017 Program
Sydney’s Premium Pub & Club Comedy Shows 10 COMEDIANS FOR $20 2017 PROGRAM A DIFFERENT LINE-UP OF COMEDIANS EVERY SHOW! www.10Comedians.com.au 10 Comedians Welcome to our ‘10 Comedians’ show! We put together the first ‘10 Comedians’ shows for the 2015 Sydney Fringe Festival. The response was astonishing: shows sold out online days before they opened. Dozens of people hoping to get tickets at the door were turned away. Audience members came up to the comedians individually after the show to thank them for such a great show – some offering to buy comedians drinks as an extra ‘thank you’! Lots of audience members left positive comments on our website, tweeted and/or posted on Facebook about the show. So in 2016 we decided to grow the roster of comedians and take this show on the road. Every ‘10 Comedians’ show is different – we currently have a roster of over 30 comedians who all have multiple sets, so even if you see the same comedian twice occasionally, you will see him/her doing different material. No two ‘10 Comedians’ shows are the same. Please help us continue to make the shows even better: ‘vote’ for your favourite comedians by liking them on Facebook and following them on Twitter and Instagram. We really hope you enjoy laughing with us tonight and at more of our shows in the near future! Sean Morahan Producer 10 Comedians Shows Great value! Better than the comedy store! -Amy, Paddington Great show, loved the political references, finale was phenomenal, my favourite act for sure… Overall, a great show. -
