Time to have a laugh
We all need a laugh more than ever, and what better way than to support the next generation of Australian Jewish comedians?
The Laugh Outta Lockdown Festival is being held at The Factory Theatre in Sydney’s Marrickville this summer, and we’ve already spotted some familiar young faces for fans of Jewish comedy!
There’s a great selection of shows on sale now, including Michael Shafar, Robyn Reynolds (UK), and Ben Kochan to name a few! Full list of shows below.
With social distancing regulations, venue capacity is down, so grab tickets sooner rather than later.
