Two more fantastic shows last night. The comedy festival has been fantastic this week!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five Stars Casey Filips. Probably one of the best picks of the festival. It’s well devised, his improv is exceptional and all up it’s one of the funniest Independent comedy shows this festival.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five Stars Chris Demos: Chips in the Night. Most people have probably suffered insomnia at one point in their lives. For Chris Demos to take his experiences and turn them into a show is pure comedy gold.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Detto’s gift for improv is where his genius lays, he’s quick with jokes, and he doesn’t falter.
Jeromaia Detto: Giuseppe’s Love Quest .detto

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Preston is both confident, charming and just a little cheeky, making him an exceptional performer. Sweeney Preston: Australia’s Worst Journalist 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Silcox is a rather peculiar character and his delivery is deadpan, making it even more amusing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ James Bar - James Barr makes an exceptional debut into the Melbourne Comedy Festival and his show Sorry I Hurt Your Son (Said My Ex To My Mum) is brave, memorable and brilliantly delivered.
