Bob Downe – 40 Ridiculous Years!

Event

Bob Downe is 40! One of Australia's most loved and enduring comedy characters was created back in the swinging '80s. "Can you stand it?" exclaims the Prince of Polyester, "coz let's face it, kids, I'm not getting any older!"

Bob is celebrating with a brand new show – "Choose Bob", which has been touring nationally to sell out venues, rapturous applause and fits of laughter.

"Choose Bob!" is a high-energy comedy concert of '80s bangers, power ballads and mega pop classics, with hilarious standup and madcap surprises in between. Promises Bob, "You'll walk IN already humming the tunes – and laugh and singalong until your face aches!"

"There'll be great merch," points out Bob. "Just try and get past me at the Meet & Greet without buying something!"
