‘Hilarious.’ Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop Podcast)
‘The blend of dark, satirical and proper naughty comedy does wonders to bolster his drug-fuelled and sexual encounter stories fittingly, leaving you on the edge of your seat as more outrageous details spill out.’ ★★★★½ Fringefeed 2022
FEATURING:
Sian Smyth (BRISBANE)
As seen on ABC’s Tonightly w/Tom Ballard, SBS Viceland, and the RAW Comedy Grand Final of 2018, Sian Smyth has been a featured performer on The Nasty Show Australia-wide.
The fact she’s been televised multiple times in Australia while making no compromises to her gut-punchingly dark comedic perspective speaks for itself. She is devastatingly funny and recently supported Doug Stanhope’s Australian tour.
Anisa Nandaula (UGANDA/BRISBANE)
With 112k instagram followers and as seen on SBS & ABC, Anisa won multiple comedy competitions in her first 6 months as a comedian – a nationally recognised poet and bestselling author, her razor sharp insights on race, relationships and gender have been smashing gigs across the state.
Glenn Grimwood (MELBOURNE)
Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Glenn is now based in Melbourne and has been onstage, crushing hearts and minds across the country, for almost 10 years. A RAW Comedy state finalist and regular Nasty Show grub, he’s headlined the show all across Australia and at The Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
