As the Brimbank Comedy Festival gets underway this weekend, one comedian who has been all across the country and world performing is set to give local’s stitches next Saturday night.
Tim ‘Caveman’ Barrot, who some have said is the oldest upcoming comedian in Australia will light up the Footscray Hotel with laughter at 6.30pm on Saturday, September 21.
Wedged into a weekend of finals football, he plays at the perfect time for football fans looking for a break from the stressful scenes of their teams battling it out on the big screens at the pub.
Join him on a wild journey that spans continents and defies expectations.
From near-death experiences in Antarctica to getting goats stoned in Turkey, he’s seen it all and lived to tell the tale.
As a tour guide in countries he never knew existed, Barrot invites you to experience the excitement of each moment, while secretly being grateful you weren’t actually there.
His comedy is a unique blend of adventure, honesty, and relatability, drawing audiences in with his engaging storytelling style.
Given the nature of the world at the moment, with cost-of-living struggles rife in Melbourne’s west, Barrot has waived the costs for his show, and encourages everyone to “just show up and have a good time.”
He has previously been a part of open mics in the area, but Saturday will be a solo debut in the west for Barrot.
“I am super excited, as a working class middle aged man, I fit in perfectly with the west,” he said.
“It is a melting pot of multiculturalism down there, so my experiences of travelling hold me in good stead to be able to connect with the whole audience.”
