What's On

Michael Shafar - LIVE
 

As seen and heard on Network 10’s The Project and Studio 10, ABC’s Comedy Bites, triple j’s Good Az Friday and more! 

Double-dosed with AstraZeneca (because he’s not a coward), the cancer surviving Michael Shafar is back licking everything again! He's also returning to the stage to solve all of the world’s problems the only way he knows how: by telling jokes. 
 
How do we get everyone vaccinated? How do we solve racism? How do you fold a fitted bed sheet? Michael promises to offer pragmatic solutions to all of these problems and more (except for the question about the bed sheet as that would require some sort of dark magic that most humans do not possess, so in the meantime just roll it up, throw it in a drawer and try to move on with your life). 
 
Since leaving a career in law, Michael has been busy justifying that decision to his Jewish mother. He has (somewhat) achieved that having sold out shows around the country. 
  
"Shafar circumnavigates the line between edgy and offensive with beautiful finesse" ★★★★½ The Age

  • Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.
  • Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
