Event description

Daryl Peebles (formally Novak 'n' Good - these days, not much better!) and Ben Richardson (that Auslan Dude) have combined to bring their respective 50-minute stand-up comedy shows to Tasmanian audiences before gracing the stages of Melbourne at the 2025 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Daryl's Stand Up for Seniors .. but not necessarily on the bus looks at ageing through the eyes of one who is slowly getting there and can still see the funny side of older life. This show appeals to seniors who can laugh at themselves, and younger people who may need some guidance in growing old disgracefully.

Ben Richardson is a professional Auslan interpreter and will have you in stitches as he recounts stories of occasionally 'getting it wrong'. He will also reveal some signing secrets known only to the Deaf community - including some non-flattering, universally accepted sign language differentiating many of our beloved politicians. If you ever wanted to become proficient in Auslan, then this show is guaranteed to keep that dream alive.

The show is at the Penguin Beer Company, 85 Main Road, Penguin on Wednesday 19 March 2025 at 7 30pm

Daryl Peebles has added much to Australia’s entertainment / comedy scene as both a writer and a performer over many years. Several comedy plays with performances in every Australian state, New Zealand and the UK have fallen from his pen along with numerous revues and bawdy pantomimes.

He has worked as a comedian for over 40 years appearing in most Australian states and in Canada. Daryl is a regular participant in the Mental Health Week Comedy Road Show and is now taking his new show Stand Up for Seniors – but not necessarily on the bus, to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in March / April 2025.

Daryl now regularly works as an after-dinner speaker, MC, magician, ventriloquist, and comedy / charity auctioneer. But there is a serious side.

While Daryl worked professionally in human resource management and corporate communications, he studied part-time at the University of Tasmania’s Tasmanian School of Business and Economics from where he graduated with a PhD - his thesis focusing on the sometimes-controversial subject, The Value of Humour in Workplaces. His research and findings are the basis of his entertaining and informative talk about the benefits of appropriate humour in life generally, although these days he focuses on the benefits of humour in ageing and in mental health.
