Headline Act: Big Fork Showdowns (comedy show)

Best Comedy Nominee - Anywhere Festival Brisbane 2025

Triumphant magpies, sharks in turmoil, heartbroken giants: Allow these real headlines to inspire Saturday night comedy at Big Fork Theatre as two teams ignore all context and take these headlines about Cats, Saints, Demons and Pies as-is.

HEADLINE ACT is a battle of short, sharp scenes, where anyone in the room can be red-carded, and the video referee is always on hand to inject some chaos.

“Is HEADLINE ACT for me?”, you ask? Yes! It’s a Saturday night crowd-pleaser that will delight all adult audiences, even those who’ve never before seen live improvised comedy. After all, wouldn’t you love to see a scene titled “Knights consider line in the sand” or “Sharks aiming to continue history of sustained success”?

Hosted by Glenn Seaby and Liz Talbot
