Asian Aunties (improv comedy)

About

The Asian Aunties think they know exactly what’s best for you — and honestly, they’re shocked you’ve survived this long without their guidance.

Aunty Rani from Sri Lanka (Himali Ratnayake) and Aunty Maria from the Philippines (Janette McBride) are shimmying in with their signature blend of brutal honesty, invaluable wisdom, and unstoppable Aunty energy that can both bless you and roast you in the same breath.

Write down your problems and put them in the rice cooker, so the Aunties can serve you their most generous advice. They’ll then improvise scenes inspired by your juicy dilemmas.

The Asian Aunties are an improv comedy duo that was part of the sold out BrisAsia Comedy Gala at the Brisbane Powerhouse, they had a sold out show in Melbourne and a full house in Sydney, and they are the reigning champs in Big Fork Theatre's Cage Match with their 12-week winning streak.

Audience members may be judged by the Aunties, but will not be brought on stage (unless you really want to), so you can enjoy the chaos from the comfort of your seats.

Show time: 7pm-8:30pm with short intermission
