Luke McGregor and Tom Ballard will perform their show, Live, at Wests Nelson Bay Diggers on March 8.
McGregor is well known to Australian audiences as one half of the formidable team that brings Rosehaven to ABC TV, one of the national broadcaster’s most successful comedy series in recent years.
He is also well known for his awkward presence, and delivery, on the stage.
Ballard is one of Australian comedy’s most consistent over achievers.
For most of 2018 he was enjoying being the host of the ABC’s Tonightly with Tom Ballard, which “was a very cool and popular show that pushed a Marxist agenda, wasted taxpayers’ money and mocked the Prime Minister’s faith”, the former triple j radio presenter joked.
“For some reason, it wasn’t renewed.”
With his now freed-up schedule Ballard is back treading the boards, telling jokes and bringing audiences the gift of laughter.
McGregor and Ballard were both finalists in the 2018 RAW Comedy National Grand Final.
Ticketsare on sale now for McGregor and Ballard’s Nelson Bay show, available through Wests or proticket.com.au.
Club members will pay $40 and non-members $45.
Doors open 7.15pm. The show begins 8pm.
