Wilson Dixon: Love Don't Live Here Anymore, You Do
 

Direct from Cripple Creek, Colorado, country music legend Wilson Dixon returns to Melbourne International Comedy Festival for the first time in years. Known to many as the greatest country singer Cripple Creek has ever produced – as well as the only country singer Cripple Creek has ever produced – whichever way you look at it, it’s a pretty good achievement. 

Life of late has been “fun" for Wilson (i.e. not fun) navigating his way through the pandemic-denying alt right-leaning members of his own family, and dealing with his ex-wife Maureen who unfortunately ran off with another man, his neighbour, and lives next door. His horse Andrew is getting angrier by the day and dating in a small town with a very shallow gene pool has its challenges, as you can imagine.

Join Wilson for an intimate hour as he performs his brand-new show with brand-new songs about his unfortunately not brand-new life.  

'Deadpan delivery of some of the funniest songs you’ll ever hear.' Time Out (UK) 

'Sparks of pure brilliance.' TVNZ 

'Packs more laughs into the allotted time than one would think possible.' The Guardian 

'A celebration of absurdity... showcases how humour can be found in the mundane and unexpected details of life.' Theatreview (NZ)

Suitable for audiences 15+

    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.
