From Brett

Heading off to this Show at the Cairns Civic Theatre

Bolstered by roars of laughter and unbridled adoration of audiences during their Melbourne season, a bunch of international and local comedians will be cramming healthy egos into tiny suitcases and hitting the highways of this mighty continent

Last year, the Roadshow consisted of approximately fourty of the Festival's finest comedians, who played a total of 103 performances to 52,137 people (to be exact)

Confronted by a ticker-tape parade (almost) of fans at every regional pitstop they visited, the 2010 Roadshow is set to overdrive for its twelfth year, covering more mileage than ever before ... from the North to the South to the East to the West ... and even setting sail across to Singapore

At every point of the journey, the Comedy Festival Roadshow leaves smiling faces and tickled ribs in its wake

Don't you miss out on the circus when it comes to your town

Roadshow performances may contain coarse language, sexual references and material that can offend
It is not recommended for children under the age of fifteen
