Having conquered festivals, TV networks and the Internet all over the world, from Los Angeles to Edinburgh and London to Melbourne, the show, which asks comics to go out of their comfort zone, has finally hit the Adelaide Fringe.
What makes SET LIST LIVE different from every other comedy show around? Comics write material, they make it into a set list and rehearse it. The show Set List asks them to throw this out the window. They will perform a set list that they are given, literally, as they are on stage. A screen behind the comic reveals the twisted topics and they riff on the subject, making the comedy off the cuff, fresh and hilarious.
“The best thing to happen to stand-up comedy since the invention of the microphone” – GQ Magazine, UK
A changing line up each night is key to the huge success of this late night show, with lineup announcements being made every day via twitter (@ntrscomedy). Resident hosts Mickey D, Lindsay Webb and Gordon Southern manage all the hoopla.
Set List Live was created by Troy Conrad and Paul Provenza in the U.S and the show has enticed a huge list of the world’s best stand up comics from the late Robyn Williams to Rove McManus, Greg Proops, Drew Carey, Jim Jeffries, Josie Long, Adam Hills, Sara Pascoe and more. Set List has also been made into a TV show, featured in the US, UK and here on the ABC. The show is a global phenomenon loved by both crowds and comics alike.
