The Big HOO-HAA Presents: Thunderdome
 

Time to find out who definitively puts the Big in the Big HOO-HAA!

Welcome to the THUNDERDOME, the highest stakes tournament in Melbourne improv!

An Australian improve comedy institution for over 20 years, the Big HOO-HAA grew from its Perth roots in 2023, spread to Melbourne in 2010, and now resides across the seas in Wellington New Zealand! But therein lies a question on everyone’s minds: which faction Hoo-Haa’s the BEST?

Then carries across the summer winds, an epic cry heralds the answer to that ultimate question – “Thunderdome!... Thunderdome!...”

Making its Melbourne International Comedy Festival debut, Thunderdome pits the three sibling against each other in a high-octane improve challenge arena! Each night they will battle it out for your laughter to collect as many points as possible, granting them the right to a faceoff in the bombastic Grand Finale. The best of the best will fight for glory, but in the end, only one improvising supergroup will rule the wasteland…

Choose your allegiance, and rally behind them as they traverse this tournament of terror.

Live comedy doesn’t get more edge-of-your-seat than this!

    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
    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.
