The classics, stripped bare. Winner of Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s top award and ‘Best Comedy’ at Adelaide Fringe and World Fridge, Garry Starr now heads to New York hell-bent on saving books from extinction by performing every Penguin Classic novel ever written in under an hour, (mostly) naked. An “ingenious comic” (???? Guardian), Starr takes the audience on a literary adventure through the world’s most iconic works of fiction. From “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” to “Moby Dick” and everything in between, nothing is safe from being lampooned in this “bonkers, ingenious and hilarious” show (Daily Mail). In its five-star review, Time Out calls Garry Starr: Classic Penguins, “wildly original and relentlessly funny.”
Show Notes: The production includes full nudity, strobe lighting, and haze. Audience participation will be invited at the discretion of the performer. No photography or filming.
