Nick wants to be a superhero when he grows up. Lisa doesn't want to grow
up at all. Together they are SUPERMANCHILD. Stand-up, light-hearted
debate and bitter, friendship-destroying arguments ensue as they ask
questions that haunt geeks, nerds and Hollywood directors alike. Like
attending The Dark Knight premiere, but with 50% less chance of getting
king-hit by Christian Bale.

A collage of sketch, sound, monologue and narrative, This Is Siberian
Husky invite you to a night of the absurd and unsettling. A sonic,
comic odyssey skating between the realms of sketch and narrative, Colour
in Stereo is a sensory experience akin to being flogged with a Hammond
organ. Ready your rods, steady your cones and prepare your cochlea for
the outlandish grooves of tomorrow, today.

PiP Comic Illusionist brings you hypnosis...with a touch of magic in
Hypnolarious! This Las Vegas-style show showcases PiP's unique comedic
wit and charm, mastery of prestidigitation and hilarious hypnotic skits,
while unleashing the creative abilities of his onstage guests'
subconscious minds equalling 90 minutes of amazing and hysterical skits.
This unforgettable show is unlike any other hypnosis show you will ever
see.
Full $35 One Show Only! - 8.30pm
Prestidigitation, aka sleight of hand magic, is the most difficult and
technically demanding of the magical arts. Normally majestic and regal,
PiP Comic has stripped that image away to bring you his very funny
adaptation of this classical art. It also now features his new assistant
Miss Olivia, his less than willing assistant, who takes any chance she
can to get her revenge on him.
$15 - $23 Just show

Before our young men left for war many of them shared their last drink at Young and Jackson. For many a drink with Chloe would remain a lasting memory throughout the wars and for the years that followed. ‘I’ll meet you at Y&Js’ was the quip made as friends parted ways and still today, friends and colleagues meet in front of Chloe for a drink to remember the past and those they have lost. This is why on ANZAC day, Young and Jackson plays such a major role as many gather to reflect, to commemorate and to remember.
Lest we forget.
Young and Jackson comes to life on the last Saturday of September when supporters from all around Australia come to celebrate before and after the game. With entertainment from 6pm until late.
It is one huge day of live action and excitement.
