Well Worth The Chemo

Perth Fringe World
As seen on The Project, Amazon Prime and his 60+ million views online!

Your favourite Jewish, cancer-surviving, lawyer-turned-comedian, Michael Shafar, is back at FRINGE WORLD with a BRAND NEW show!

In his funniest (and edgiest) show yet, Shafar explains how to reverse the brutal history of colonisation, why women should drunk-drive, which religion is correct and the importance of chemo patients being allowed to smoke. Fun for the whole family!

Shafar receives critical acclaim everywhere he performs, but his favourite ever review was from his oncologist who simply said: "Great show, Michael. You were well worth the chemo."

If that's not enough, this review sums up Michael's comedy perfectly:

Event Date: 15/02/2023, 07:30 pm

Coming to the Capitol Theatre, Sydney
This multi award winning show will open in Sydney at the Capitol Theatre on 11 February 2023. 

Released as a concept album in 1969, the stage version of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat has become one of the world’s most beloved family musicals. The multi-award-winning show, which began life as a small-scale school concert, has been performed hundreds of times in over 80 countries worldwide. The show features songs that have gone on to become pop and musical theatre classics, including Any Dream Will Do, Close Every Door to Me, Jacob and Sons, There’s One More Angel In Heaven and Go Go Go Joseph.

Told entirely through song with the help of The Narrator, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat follows the story of Jacob’s favourite son Joseph and his eleven brothers. After being sold into slavery by the brothers, he ingratiates himself with Egyptian noble Potiphar, but ends up in jail after refusing the advances of Potiphar’s wife.

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat features music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice. The production is directed by Laurence Connor (Les Misérables, Miss Saigon, Phantom of the Opera, School of Rock), choreographed by Joann M Hunter (School of Rock), with music supervision by John Rigby.

PETER FECHTER: 59 MINUTES BY JORDAN TANNAH...

Event Date: 01/02/2023, 09:30 pm

Midsumma Festival - Melbourne
On the Death Strip of the Berlin Wall in 1962, from gunshot to final breath, an adolescent Peter Fechter hears the lives of family, friends, and strangers unfolding in the city around him – dozens of voices converging in the moment of his death and illuminating his decision to risk it all for love.

Based on real world events, the Berlin Wall looms large as Carlo Hengstler brings this heart breaking story of family ties, oppression, liberty, and cloistered sexuality, to the stage with a wry humour, difficult truths and unexpected joy.

CULT BY RYAN HENRY

Event Date: 01/02/2023, 08:00 pm

Midsumma Festival - Melbourne
Don't stop when you're tired... Stop when you're dead!
You signed on the dotted line, you paid the up-front joining fee and your complimentary microfibre sweat towel has definitely been used by someone else. Congratulations, you’re now on the path to being your best self!

The ripe sweat of men in spaghetti-strap singlets have blurred your senses. That’s not a heart attack, it’s your heart rate perfectly synced to the deafening house music. There’s a personal trainer who's turned into the best friend you didn’t agree to. With their roars of generic encouragement and your determination to be on top, the perfect specimen starts to take form. The question is, can you maintain it?

More than just a story about gaining the strength to crush a watermelon between your thighs, Ryan Henry has created a new Australian work that will reacquaint audiences with self-love. Laugh, cry and maybe vomit if you’ve ever felt personally victimised by an elliptical trainer as cult sprints onto the Melbourne theatre scene.

To put it simply, it’s a spectacle of campness that is sure to release your endorphins.

OUTLIER BY MARCUS BATESON

Event Date: 01/02/2023, 06:30 pm

Midsumma Festival - Melbourne
One dark night on a Dublin sports field, James meets a guy he wishes he hadn’t. On a blurry Dublin sports field, James struggles to remember what is real and what is imaginary, after meeting a guy he wishes he hadn’t.

A lonely university student from rural Ireland, James deflects the events of a dark night, with stories of his astrology obsessed friend, his performatively woke flatmate, and a new overpriced mindfulness app he’s just discovered.

Jonathon Shilling performs in this energetic one-person show confronting gay online hook-up culture, rainbow capitalism and issues of consent with humour, honesty and nuance.

A Southern Fairytale

Event Date: 30/01/2023, 08:30 pm

Midsumma Festival - Melbourne
Based on true events, A Southern Fairytale artfully illuminates the challenges facing a young, gay Christian growing up in the Deep South. As family and friends impose extreme measures to reshape him to fit their ideal, a young man is left isolated, alone and dealing with the very real impacts of conversion therapy, excommunication, and a father who believes that a demon has possessed his son.

Will he ever thrive - or even just simply survive - if he chooses to live as he was born? Is happiness possible when the only faith you have ever known, not to mention everyone you love, demands that you are wrong and living a life of sin?

"There is a depth of wisdom here which needs to be shared with the world." - World Pride New York
