ABOUT THE SHOW
Some of the biggest names in Australian satire are once again joining forces for their annual assault on politics, current events and the absurdity of modern life.
Join Mark Humphries (from ABC’s 7:30 satirical sketches), Charles Firth (from The Chaser), James Schloeffel (founder of The Shovel) and musical comedy genius Gabbi Bolt (“Best Newcomer” – Sydney Comedy Festival) as they dissect the best and worst bits of 2023, live on stage.
Featuring a non-stop barrage of one-liners, satirical sketches, musical numbers and the best headlines from The Chaser and The Shovel, the ‘War on’ Gala has become one of the must-see shows of the year.
One night only. VIP tickets include the best seats in the house, plus a copy of The Chaser and Shovel Annual 2022 (worth $32.95).
