Deadly Funny Darwin Heat

Cheeky and loud, black and proud, Deadly Funny is Melbourne International Comedy Festival's national comedy competition, unearthing the freshest and funniest First Nations talent from across the country.

To participate, all you need is five minutes of funny material. Material can be stand up, musical, sketch, dance or character based, or simply the telling of a good yarn. Sign up, come along, run through your ideas with a professional comedian in a three-hour workshop, and then jump on stage for a public performance.
