Winner: Barry Award, Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Dave is back! After the fallout of his first show and threats from scary feminists, he's given up stand-up and turned to the serious clown training of Gaulier. Featuring classics like What's the Deal with Online Bullying?, Mime Caught in Political Correctness Gone Mad, The Six-Foot Duck and The Crippling Fears That Keep Us Awake at Night Sketch. 'A comedy turducken of gross-out gags, absurdist humour and sharply observed parody.' ***** (Age). 'Punky and genuinely original.' ***** (Mirror). 'A delicious meta-lasagne of insanity... off-the-charts, wet-your-pants brilliant.' ****½ (Herald Sun).
