ABOUT THE SHOW

Sammy J returns in a time-bending memoir that bounces through the life of a recovering attention seeker via song, stories and VHS tapes.

A butterfly flaps its wings and four decades later Sammy J accidentally turns up to a 40th birthday party dressed as a kangaroo. Who is to blame? What moment led to this? Welcome to the Kangaroo Effect.

‘This country’s finest and most astute satirist.’ ★★★★★ The Age

‘How do you prefer your comedy? Straight stand-up, musical, storytelling, light-hearted or heartfelt? Why not just have it all? Sammy J has something for everyone in his show.’ ★★★★★ Chortle (UK)

‘What a deluded flog.’ Kyle Sandilands
