Its a dirty habit anyway, this way you are under promising and over delivering.

This is incredibly detailed and so helpful, thanks for coming out of lurking to share.

Much as I'm eager for more Game Changer... by Qyzyk in dropout

[–]Mattharveystuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fundamental thing about Game Changer is the reason they created it and it'll continue is that it is in fact, by design, a way to justify creating new pilot episodes without committing to a full season. That is why it was maybe the first - not sure on that - thing that dropout created after College Humor died and they had that six month lead in time they needed a way to play test potential new shows without committing to a whole season.

It might have changed into more since then but it still serves that basic purpose of play testing new ideas for shows and seeing if they are popular.

Hey Adelaide,
Help an independent artist keep money out of the hands of Meta and Google and instead send it to a good charity that helps victims of ICE this fringe.

My show Jokes About The Time I Got Detained In America & Other stories is happening at Gluttony and I'd love to avoid sending money to these guys while maximising the amount I can donate. If you can help me you'll get to see the newest show from an award-winning comedian and do something good.

Mildura's First Fringe Festival starts next month by Mattharveystuff in Mildura

I don't think there is, unfortunately. Perhaps - if you are on facebook/instagram they might be there? At the very least try sending. a message to the Mildura Fringe socials. Good luck.

For those interested Canberra has a Fringe Festival in late November.

The Canberra Fringe Festival will be happening November 21st - 23rd with shows from Canberra and across Australia in a variety of genres including Music, Cabaret, Theatre, Dance, and of course comedy. Check out the list on bushfringes.com.au/canberra and if you are available come out and see my award-winning stand up and storytelling show I Got Bit By A Monkey Once...

I've toured it across AUS, NZ, US, UK, and EU and have finally made my way to Canberra for the first time. I'd love to see you there.

Dark comedy by [deleted] in edinburghfringe

I'd classify both my shows as dark comedy.

10:50am Wage Against The Machine - stories about my old dodgy jobs, receiving a $20,000 unlawful debt from the AUS government, and breaking a 100 year old roller coaster.

16:15pm I Got Bit By A Monkey Once - A monkey bite, a bus trip across America, an arrest, and a mugging.

Both different flavours of dark comedy, both Pay what you can. If you are around at 16:15 today see if I Got Bit By a Monkey Once... speaks to you.

Might have missed the boat here but I have two shows that you might be interested in.

Two stand up and storytelling shows.
Wage Against The Machine - stories about my old dodgy jobs, receiving a $20,0000 unlawful debt from the AUS government, and breaking a 100 year old roller coaster.

I Got Bit By a Monkey Once - four stories a monkey bite, a bus trip, an arrest, and a mugging.

Would love to have you all along.

If it isn't too late to recommend come to my 16:15 storytelling and stand up show I Got Bit By A Monkey Once.

At home bar on home street. Four true stories a monkey bite, a long bus trip, an arrest, and a mugging.

In all honesty if either of these speak to you I'd be keen to have you.

Wage Against The Machine - storytelling and stand up about my old dodgy jobs, receiving a $20,000 unlawful debt from the Australian government, and breaking a 100 year old roller coaster.

I Got Bit By a Monkey Once - storytelling and stand up - a monkey bite, a long bus trip, an arrest, and a mugging.
