Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2015 Review - Alice Fraser


http://www.comedyfestival.com.au/2015/season/shows/savage-alice-fraser
 
 
One does not go to a comedy festival show expecting to cry.
 
I cried during Alice's show and I'm not afraid to admit it.
 
This show is brave and beautiful.  I don't want to reveal too much, but Alice had some horrible things happen to her while she was writing this show, and the way she has weaved them in and out of the show is wonderful.
 
Please don't think that it's all sad, there are a lot of really funny parts. There are accents and there are banjo songs. 
 
This is not conventional 'comedy', but I really loved it.
 
4.5/5 stars
 
There are only two shows left in Melbourne, but then Alice is Sydney bound.  Get tickets for Melbourne here!
