Black Sheep: Glorious Baastards
Presented by The Dreaming
“Four comics race from stand-up, to storytelling, to sketch comedy... Melodie Reynolds steals the show with the sharpest character work, but nobody disappoints" - The Sunday Age
From the mob that brought you Bulupin Kwobinyarn (Australia’s first Indigenous Prime Minister & cult political hero), the Black Sheep are back with a brand new night of breakneck sketch comedy – Blackfella style! Take a trip through Australia in a parallel-reality – where a host of colourful characters are chewing up stereotypes, spitting them out, and washing it all down with a big dose of black humour. Bold, hilarious and insatiably irreverent, these baastards will have you laughing your scalp off… no matter what colour it is!
