Aunty Donna at Moore Theatre

Aunty Donna is a Melbourne-based comedy troupe best seen in person. They have blown up on popular mediums such as television, online streaming services, and YouTube. This trek is an incredible chance to witness some of the funniest comedy ever.

Their unique brand of comedy is what has made them so popular in recent years. Members include Thomas Zaharious as composer, Zachary Ruane as writer and performer, Max Miller as director, Sam Lingham as head writer and stage director, Broden Kelly as writer and performer, and Mark Samual Bonanno as writer and performer. In 2011, the five of them had met while studying acting at different universities.

Realizing a gap in the comedic market, they debuted their live show, Aunty Donna in Pantsuits, at the Melbourne Fringe Festival, where it was nominated for a Golden Gibbo. Their subsequent live act, Aunty Donna and the Fax Machine Shop, was also well received. As a team, they were able to gain even more international recognition after performing at prestigious international festivals like the San Francisco Sketchfest and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2014.

In addition to several pilots and webseries for ABC, Screen Australia, and Stan between 2015 and 2017, they also produced a weekly podcast. Because of how hard they worked, they were bound to achieve success. Following the critical and commercial success of their debut studio album, The Album, in 2018, the band set out on a tour titled Always Room for Christmas Pud. Aunt Donna's Big Ol' House of Fun, a Netflix original series, also premiered that year. That move cemented the group's status as industry heavyweights.

They didn't play live again until 2022, when they embarked on a tour called "The Magical Dead Cat Tour," which was their first since the lockdown measures were instituted. Now they are back with a brand-new tour that's guaranteed to make you laugh out loud the whole time thanks to these exceptional performers.
