Original comedy offer

-

Old Drouin Butter Factory will welcome the return of “Here, There and Everywhere Theatre Company” with an original comedy show filled with hysterical stand-up, crazy skits and outrageous characters.

The Traralgon-based company will perform newest offering “You’re Skitting Me…Again!” on Saturday at 8pm.

Boasting a cast of 20 performers and special guests from across the Gippsland region, this show pokes fun at culture, television news, politics, cable style advertisin­g, first world problems, theatre and many other topical and relatable issues.

Director Phillip A. Mayer says, “it’s the type of politicall­y-incorrect, edgy entertainm­ent audiences have come to expect” from the company.

“Part of our aim is to get people who don’t attend theatre, for whatever reason, in the door and produce fun material which shows that theatre is great entertainm­ent and a top night out,” he added. “Audiences love our shows, they literally laugh non-stop and leave the theatre asking why more theatre isn’t like this. ‘You’re Skitting Me…Again!’ has it all and no subject is taboo. The cast are nothing short of brilliant, they’re very, very funny. If you enjoy the Comedy Festival Road Show, you’ll love this.”

“Here, There and Everywhere Theatre Company” is no stranger to the Old Drouin Butter Factory. They have previously performed shows such as “Bogan Shakespear­e” and “The Comedy of Life; Speaking Alone Two”.

“What you’re going to see is fast-paced comedy inspired by comedians like Dave Hughes, Will Anderson and Carl Barron. There’s a twist of insanity, a drop of craziness and a slice of school-yard smut. It’s sarcastica­lly absurd comedy served with thought-provoking barbs.”

Tickets to see “You’re Skitting Me…Again!” are $20 per person.
