Lawrence Mooney at Melbourne Public

Thursday 16 August - Doors open at 6pm

As part of Melbourne Public’s new series of comedy nights, we are thrilled to be welcoming Lawrence Mooney to the stage on Thursday 16 August.

Lawrence Mooney is a stand-up comedian widely regarded by fans and peers as one of the funniest of the funniest.  His brutally honest and hilarious insights have earned him Best Show Sydney Comedy Festival 2015 and a Barry Award Nomination for Best Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2015.

Lawrence Mooney is well known as the host of Dirty Laundry Live that ran for three seasons on ABC TV and his sitcom pilot Moonman also aired on ABC TV in 2016. ABC viewers would already be familiar with his work on Agony Uncles, Agony of Life and Agony of Modern Manners.

Lawrence moved to commercial television in 2016 as host of the Rio Paralympics and ringleader on the Seven Network Series Behave Yourself.

Lawrence is heard throughout Australia on Triple M being our Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull.

Lawrence will be supported by Wayne Deakin; a regular headliner at all Australian comedy venues.

These tickets are set to sell out quickly - so book now to avoid disappointment!
