Aidan Jones
Chopin's Nocturne
Special event only for Melbourne International Comedy Festival!
We have created a replica 1830's Parisian salon complete with period furniture and a grand piano to host the show. An immersive space to match the story, and an experience like no other!
I grew up playing classical piano, but failed my conservatory audition at 18. I spent some time focussing on MDMA, then started stand-up in 2011. During the pandemic I came back to the piano, and so I wrote this show to combine them.
It's my favourite piece, Chopin's Nocturne in Eb Major, presented with jokes by a bald dickhead with a beard (me).
'Punchlines that will leave you laughing for days on end... This is what a well-crafted comedy set looks like!' ★★★★★ Adelaide Advertiser
'One of the cleverest minds on the Aussie comedy circuit.' ★★★★½ The West Australian
'He's a masterful storyteller... effortless charisma, disarming honesty and a sharp, curious mind.' ★★★★ The Age
Nominated for Best Show in the ISH Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2023 (Long-List)
Please note, the following performances will be filmed: Thu 17 Apr
Suitable for audiences 15+
Drug references
Language – occasional coarse language
