CCF: The Canberra Comedy Festival Debate

Laughter is The Key To The Heart
 

Six competitors. Two teams. Barely any rules.

Polish your insults and sharpen your tongue as we match the wits of Canberra’s finest comic minds in a spectacular debate! Some ridiculously entertaining humourists are going to slap each other silly with a scintillating turn of phrase as they debate the topic: Laughter is the key to the heart.

Can the affirmative prove that a sense of humour is really all you need? Or will the negative prevail that sex appeal and a big bank account are more important?

Will the winner be the sanest or the silliest? You decide.

Step into the ring. It’s time to throw some punchlines.

This superb line-up of Canberra comedians includes stars who have taken their own shows to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, RAW comedy finalists, a legendary musical comedian and an academic who is funny, a writer and an actor! The challenge of keeping this motley crew of comic debaters in order goes to Benjamin Stevenson as the moderator. Benjamin is one half of the award winning Stevenson Experience comedy duo and an international best-selling author.
