Noughty Girls at Sydney Comedy Festival
After sold-out shows and rave reviews at FRINGE WORLD Perth and Adelaide Fringe Festival, The General Public is bringing their award-winning sketch comedy show to Sydney Comedy Festival 16 & 18 May at 9.30pm. When Kim, Courtney and Hannah receive the Facebook invite to their 10-year high school reunion, they must choose between clicking ‘attending’ and returning to a time of flip-phones, sk8er bois and Myspace, or clicking ‘interested’ and staying home. With the help of DJ Dolly Doctor, the trio try to decide what to do, while bringing back a few of their favourite 2000s hits, misses and strawberry kisses. Part sketch comedy. Part memoir. Full on nostalgic mayhem! Tickets are $15.
