Comedy Therapy

Presented by JN Comedy Productions

4 Comedians and 1 Psychiatrist

Got a problem?
One professional psychiatrist and four thoroughly unqualified comedians try to solve it.
Like a hilarious, unlicensed group therapy session where no one actually gets better.
After selling-out major theatres in Europe and London, André De Freitas and Dr Benji Waterhouse bring their box office hit to Melbourne.
Past audience problems include: ‘How do I leave a cult without hurting their feelings?’ ‘What’s the most ethical way to kill my goldfish?’ and ‘Help, my mum is on OnlyFans!’ NB.
Not a substitute for professional advice, obviously.
