3-Course Comedy

Total sell-outs: Michael Shafar, Sam Taunton and Tim Hewitt return to The Butterfly Club in 3 Course Comedy.

As seen on ABC’s Comedy Up Late, SBS’s RAW Comedy and Channel 31’s The Leak.

After selling out at Perth’s Fringe World, the Melbourne Comedy Festival and encore shows, Michael Shafar, Sam Taunton and Tim Hewitt return to dish up a smorgasbord of delicious stand-up with 3 Course Comedy. Featuring three of Melbourne’s finest comedians, this is a stand-up degustation unlike any other (in that there isn’t actually any food).

The entrée is Comedy Zone’s Sam Taunton. From presenting on Channel V to racking up a “Special Mention” at the National RAW Comedy final, Taunton is on the rise. As Chortle put it, his “sparky conversational style and easy confidence suits the opening slot perfectly”.

Serving up the main meal is Michael Shafar, another RAW Comedy national finalist, the creator of Round Squares and host of The Leak. Described by Funny Tonne as “really very good”, Shafar is the consummate storyteller and satirist, pointing out the absurd and the ridiculous.

Your dessert for the night comes in the form of Tim Hewitt. And let’s face it, he’s pretty freaking sweet. Meet the man who can boast a sold out season at the Brisbane Fringe and who Squirrel comedy says “weaves in and out of his material in dream like fashion”. Hewitt’s comic stylings are the perfect way to round out a delicious night of comedy.
