Fox J. Michaels is a baby faced loser working as a paper-pusher on the top floor of a Collins Street finance firm. He likes toys, Star Wars and his Mum’s housekeeping skills. Gordon Gatto is the head honcho of the company, a business genius with Richard Branson’s business nous, Donald Trump’s front and Gordon Ramsay’s character traits. Then one day, the two men meet and both of their lives change forever as Gatto takes his young employee under his wing.

Oh, Maeve, Maeve, Maeve. You’re cute, and I love those beautiful 50s-homemaker-style dresses you wear on stage. You love funny pictures of animals, and so do I. You enjoy a bit of self-deprecation, and I love it too. I can just imagine us getting along really well – we’d sit down to a pot of tea and some freshly made cake, and you’d make me laugh so hard with your clever stories that I’d snort tea out of my nose.

How had I only vaguely heard of Dave Bloustien before? The Sydney-based comic and writer for shows such as Good News Week has somewhat of a growing profile, but The Social Contract clearly proves he deserves more attention.

It’s a show based around true events – the ridiculous situation Bloustien found himself in a few years ago when he was forced to defend his comedy and …

With all the shit going on in the world today, it’s not a complete stretch of the imagination to envisage a world where a group of five twenty-somethings are holed up in an underground bunker, hiding out from mutants and rabid pigeons on the surface. And annoying each other.
Cue The Delusionists in Bunker 5, a well-crafted show following the shenanigans of three boys and two girls hiding out in a vast bunker – complete with squash court! There’s Ben the superdork self-styled dictator; Alex, Ben’s fresh-faced innocent sidekick and the …
