Cadet Kelly is the Best Movie I've Ever Seen in my Friggin Life
 

Cadet Kelly is the Best Movie I've Ever Seen in my Friggin Life. Nominated for Best Comedy at Melbourne Fringe Festival 2024, this show is an unhinged chaotic love letter to Disney Channel Original Movies.

Ben McCarthy’s world turned upside down after seeing the Disney Channel Original Movie: Cadet Kelly, starring Hilary Duff. He's certain it's the best film ever made, yet people aren't giving it the recognition it deserves. Witness his intensity, as he pleads you to like a film he likes very much.

I know what you're thinking, "I don't know this movie." That's fine, take a seat and let Ben let you know what you don't know.

Ben McCarthy is an improviser and comedian who's been performing comedy for over ten years.

His nostalgic, absurd comedy earned a nomination for Best Comedy at Melbourne Fringe and rave reviews. Don’t miss his first ever solo show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival!

    Going from that show to Mary said what she said was like going from a Mozart piano concerto to one of the more repetitive pieces by Philip Glass.

    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.

    At 11.50am on October 15 1970, 35 men fell to their death as their place of work gave way from under them.

    There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
