Daniel Muggleton
"Blinded by the Whites"
Shows over 18 only!
DATE: Friday 11 October 2024
TIME: Doors open 7.30pm | Show starts 8pm
COST: $39.78
This show is named after a song by The Streets called ‘Blinded by the Lights’ about taking ecstasy in a British nightclub. Muggleton’s not saying watching him do comedy will feel that good, but the comedown is much smoother, and tracksuits are still appropriate attire.
Australian comedy’s foul-mouthed prophet has had a big 2023 with his first international tour, an appearance at Just For Laughs and a headline show at Sydney Opera House. Come see why Daniel Muggleton’s mix of bracing social commentary and electric crowd work have made him one of comedy’s rising stars!
"If you’re easily offended he will make a meal of you." ★★★★★ The Advertiser "Will have you laughing & then hating yourself for it" ★★★★ HiFi
