Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow heads to Korea

In partnership with the Busan International Comedy Festival, the Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow is touring to Seoul and Busan, with a fantastically funny line-up of artists from the world’s biggest and much-loved comedy festival.

This side-splitting show will be the highlight of the English program, featuring a dynamic line-up of performers hand-picked by the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

Three of the brightest stars on the Australian comedy circuit (and TV regulars) appear side by side for this one massive show – the engaging and whip-smart Dave Thornton; the relatable and hilarious, Claire Hooper; and Venezuelan-born/Australian-citizen, Ivan Aristeguieta - giving Korean audiences a taste of Australia’s largest comedy festival!

Claire Hooper – 'marvellously entertaining' ★★★★ Chortle

Dave Thornton – 'He’s razor sharp and very funny' Inpress

Ivan Aristeguieta – 'Aristeguieta’s performance is outstanding' ★★★★ Arts Hub
