Physical comic wunderkind ‘Garry Starr’ is thrilled to announce his return to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Sydney Comedy Festival stage with his new show GARRY STARR GREECE LIGHTNING which is set to entertain audiences from 12-24 April at The Butterfly Club Melbourne and 7-8 May at The Factory Theatre Sydney.
An overzealous idiot attempts to perform all of Greek Mythology in less than 60 minutes in order to save his Hellenic homeland from economic ruin. Never before has Medusa been looser, Achilles more sillies, or Uranus so heinous. Having single handedly saved the performing arts in 2018 with his multi award-winning debut show ‘Performs Everything’, comic wunderkind Garry Starr returns with another anarchic masterclass not to be mythed.
