Desiree Burch

The Golden Wrath

  • United States

An Australian premiere from the reknowned Desiree Burch (USA/UK), the perfect raw and raucous voice for these chaotic times.

Bringing a childlike wonder and crone-like wit to the middle-aged experiences of losing sleep, relevance, knee cartilage, youth and illusions. A comedy hour that relishes the rage and abandon that comes once you become invisible. Ferociously curious and gloriously irascible, an hour with Desiree Burch is enlightening and filled with belly laughs.

As seen on Netflix's Too Hot to Handle, Taskmaster (UK), The Last Leg, Live at the Apollo and more.

‘Spectacular as it gets without costumes, props and fireworks.’ ★★★★★ Fest Mag

‘Near-perfect example of comedic storytelling.’ ★★★★ The Standard (UK)

‘A joy to watch.’ ★★★★ Broadway Baby (UK)

★★★★ The Wee Review (UK)

★★★★ The Scotsman

★★★★ Funny Women

★★★★ The Guardian (UK)
