An absurd sketch show where it's always 2am, set in the liminal space between screen-lit insomnia and bad dreams. We'll try every trick in the book to escape the hell of consciousness. Sleep podcasts. Revisiting our least favourite memories. Watching The Exorcist. Will it be fine? No, stop asking. Ange Lavoipierre is an award-winning comedian. She's a regular on the Australian and UK comedy festival circuit, and had a sold-out Edinburgh Fringe with her last show I've Got 99 Problems And Here Is An Exhaustive List Of Them.

Q&A: Ange Lavoipierre, Your Mother Chucks Rocks And Shells

Edinburgh Fringe Rarely Asked Questions - Ange Lavoipierre & Jane Watt

Already a critical success at the Adelaide Fringe, this marks the first time she has moved away from straight stand-up and, no longer concerned with or constricted by genre, presents THE show she has really always wanted to do.

Interview with journalist and comedian Ange Lavoipierre

"In 2019 I was doing a show where I would make someone in the audience pretend to be my dad and I gave him lines and this one guy went off book and started flirting with me. I would have loved some sleeping pills that night."
