Reds Go Riot 2022!
Comedy is back for Term 4! After the wild ride that has been 2022, it's time we sat back and had some belly laughs. Save 2nd November as the date for the third 'Reds Go Riot' Showcase - this year all proceeds will go towards helping Boots for one & all community Tickets on sale next term.
The incomparable Mandy Nolan is back to facilitate the Funny Kids Comedy workshops, culminating in a night of hilarity as seen in previous years. Mandy is one of Australia's finest comedic talents and has been seen on ABC's Q&A, SBS's Insight and is an accomplished comic, author, journalist, artist, teacher, advocate...'Mandy Nolan is hilarious, with a wicked, wicked sense of humour' - Olivia Newton John.
