The Dish is classic Australian stuff and the film that single-handedly put the Australian small town of Parkes on the map... until the Elvis Festival of course.

Award winning comedian Steph Tisdell (The Project, ABC, Triple J) is touring the Australian festival circuit with her brand new show Baby Beryl. Have you ever met a baby named Beryl in the last decade? Because Steph sure hasn’t! Names come in and out of fashion and Steph thinks that’s pretty weird. Would your life be different if you had a nickname? Even naming structures vary from country to country. So, really, what’s in a name?! Steph reckons we should find out. And that’s why you’re invited to come up on stage for an interview in this interactive and surreal show where stand-up meets chat show!
“Hey, you got an hour? Look, I’ve been doing a shit-ton of thinking about…us, and where we’re headed. This isn’t easy, but I need to be 100% Honest with you, even if what I say makes you laugh, very, very hard… You had better sit down for this…” Australia’s adopted son of comedy, Arj Barker returns with his brand-new show ‘We Need to Talk’.
Kitty Flanagan and Glenn Robbins take to the stage to discuss Kitty’s best-selling book, 488 Rules for Life. Appearing in a pair of comfortable armchairs, the duo will humorously dissect the acerbic reference book, creating an on-stage book club, where the audience don’t actually need to read the book. The show will address the dos and don’ts of modern day-to-day living, and the habits that disrupt the social equilibrium - with rules for language, food, dating, travel and more.

With a different drunken actor for each show, required to start drinking four hours beforehand, Sh!t-Faced Shakespeare promises a unique, one-off experience for audiences.
