Chris Nguyen: is a Sydney-based, Newcastle-born comedian. In 2019, his debut show ‘Relatable Material’ was nominated for the Sydney Fringe Award for Best Comedy. With a subversive wit and a penchant for jokes, he’s available for weddings, bar mitzvahs and funerals.

“Exuded a vibe of calm subversion, using self-deprecation to lead us down one path, before sucker punching us with some well-measured shock humour” – James Ong, Theatre Travels

Frida DeGuise: Hundreds of thousands of followers on social media! It’s not easy being a mother of four, Lebanese and Muslim. For Frida Deguise, this is just her normal life. She is funny and outspoken about all the things that make her comedy unique. Being a Muslim woman, wearing a Metallica shirt and making fun of hiding explosives in her hijab, sure got a reaction! Honoring the title of Australia’s only female Islamic comic wearing a hijab, Frida pushes the boundaries of perception, shows her world with HER rules. Her over-the-top bravado is balanced with brevity. Her controversy will make you explode with laughter.

Having toured on the annual comedy hit show ‘A Very Woggy Xmas Gala’ with Joe Avati, Turkish Australian comedy sensation Tahir, better known to most as ‘Habib’ of Fat Pizza, and Gabriel Rossi Frida Deguise really is the soul of wit.
