Since its sold-out premiere at Vivid Ideas in 2022, the hilarious comedy show ‘Are You Pulling My Leg?’ has played at comedy festivals and venues in NSW and QLD and now it’s set to tour Australia in 2024.

Showcasing some of Australia’s funniest comedians with disability or chronic illness, this raucous accessible comedy event boasts a line-up of award-winning performers with entertaining and uncensored insights into disability and much more.

With razor-sharp wit and undeniable charm, these talented comedians share hilarious and uncensored insights into disability and oh so much more! From awkward encounters to side-splitting observations that cut to the quick, no subject is off-limits.

MC’d by the fabulous Madeleine Stewart, the changing line-up will feature comedians including Bec Charlwood, Sam Kissajukian, Alexandra Hudson, Bea Barbeau-Scurla, Jamal Abdul, Irene Nicola, Oliver Hunter, Loz Booth, Robyn Reynolds, Sam Wade and Tom Elphick.

Please see venue listings for details on the artist line-up for each show.
