Festival

Darwin Entertainment Centre presents
Accessible Arts and Crips & Creeps in association with Arts on Tour

Showcasing some of Australia’s funniest comedians with disability or chronic illness, this raucous accessible comedy event boasts a line-up of award-winning performers with entertaining and uncensored insights into disability and oh-so-much more!

With razor-sharp wit and undeniable charm, the Are You Pulling My Leg? line-up brings to the stage hilarious and uncensored insights into disability. From awkward encounters to side-splitting observations that cut to the quick, no subject is off-limits. Venturing much further than disability, their quick quips highlight the many facets of their lives, relationships, experiences and personalities.

Performing in Darwin, we welcome:
Madeleine Stewart
Bec Charlwood
Oliver Hunter
Irene Nicola
Sam Wade

Discover for yourself that disabled comedians are just as funny as non-disabled comedians! The biggest joke is that they don’t always get equal access to gigs, so support this show, have a laugh and help make a difference. It’s that easy!

"Crips & Creeps holds a fresh and unique position in the modern Sydney Comedy scene. By many accounts C&C has evolved past its core concept as an accessible stand-up gig, by developing a new niche of live comedy.” THEATRE TRAVELS

“Thought-provoking and eye opening.” THE AGE
