The Stage is Hers: International Women’s Day

What’s it like being a woman in the comedy industry?

Join four of Australia’s sharpest comedic voices —Andrea Powell, Sashi Perera, Janty Blair and Jude Perl — as they dive into the wild, wonderful world of comedy: the craft, the chaos, the wins, and the behind-the-scenes hustle.

From the craft of writing a joke, to navigating unpredictable audiences and an ever-shifting landscape, this panel will pull back the curtain on what it really takes to find — and hold — your place on the stage.

Kick off the night with a glass of bubbles before settling in for an evening of wit, warmth and candid conversation.  Hosted by comedian and performer, Andrea Powell.

Suitable for adults. Tickets $10.
