WIL ANDERSON
A former host of ABC’s The Glass House, co-host of the Triple J breakfast radio show and the drive show on Triple M, a Sunday magazine columnist for six years, author of two books and star of the Wilosophy DVD, Wil Anderson has seen it all.
Now the host of the extremely successful The Gruen Transfer on ABC TV, his career has gone from strength to strength. The Helpmann Award-winning show Wilful Misconduct played to sell-out audiences right across Australia and New Zealand, was nominated for best show, and won the People’s Choice at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Wil's stand up is a densely written, high-speed ride though one of the most wonderful comedic imaginations in the country. Politics, pop and the banal come together in a Wil Anderson routine, always delivered with more conviction and enthusiasm than any man's vocal chords can take.
“Few comics combine sharp political satire and dick jokes as well as Wil Anderson.” - The Age

MICK MOLLOY
Mick is one of Australia’s most recognised comedians. An actor, writer and producer, Mick combines the scruffy appeal of a laid-back larrikin and the acid tongue of the world’s toughest critic. This combination has proved successful both in terms of Mick’s box office appeal as a writer/performer and in the accolades he has received within the industry.
Mick is best known on Australian television and the big screen as writer and performer for The Late Show (ABC TV), Network 10’s Before The Game and the hilarious Crackerjack
As well as screen acting, Mick has a long history in radio: his program ToughLove was broadcast nationally, and prior to this, he hosted the phenomenon that was Martin/Molloy. It is still one of the most successful programs ever to be broadcast in Australia and is known to have revolutionised the importance of the drive time slot in Australian radio. He is currently co-hosting The Hot Breakfast with Eddie McGuire on Triple M. |
