Gadsby is a master storyteller adept at weaving stories together with one clever tie-in joke. She’s the thinking woman’s comedian and her audiences love her for it.

West Gate | Melbourne Theatre Company
At 11.50am on October 15 1970, 35 men fell to their death as their place of work gave way from under them.
Heathers The Musical
Capturing the essence of its predecessor, Heathers The Musical is an absurdly comic production that doesn’t just walk the line of polite society but plans to blow it all up with reckless abandon.The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
