Presented by Darebin Arts Speakeasy
Local and award-winning physical theatre company, The Wholesome Hour (Kimberley Twiner, Lily Fish, Angela Fouhy and Sunanda Sachatrakul) rocket their totally wild, neo-vaudevillian variety show to Darebin Arts Centre.

This is all ages Aussie comedy at its silliest!
