Roosters vary greatly in appearance from breed to breed, but are often known to have bright, flashy colours, large combs and crow about wanting people to come to their new stand-up show.
Sam Taunton is back for another hour and boy, does he have a lot to report back on. Last year, he won the Pinder Prize at the Melbourne Comedy Festival, he took up vaping, then quit vaping, debuted at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, scored his own regular segment on Network Ten’s The Project as a roaming idiot, then in a harrowing turn of events, took up vaping again.
Sam burst onto the scene in 2017 where he was nominated for the prestigious Best Newcomer Award at the Melbourne Comedy Festival. In 2019, he charmed Australian audiences with his show, Straight From The Shoulder, which saw him take out the prestigious Pinder Prize and earned him a season at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Sam has also toured with the Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow throughout Australia and Asia, is a regular at Splendour In The Grass and the nationwide Falls Festival, and has performed at Sydney Opera House as part of Just For Laughs.
If you could ignore the fact that he once hosted a show on MTV about Geordie Shore, he’d be most grateful.
All in all, Sam is firmly cementing himself as one of the hottest young voices on the Australian comedy circuit.
