Emilie Biggar

Deadbeat Academy

Deadbeat Academy

with the one and only Emilie Biggar!

Welcome to Deadbeat Academy, the only show in Australia dedicated to dissecting and publicly roasting one of our nation’s most common disappearing acts – absent fathers.

Leading the charge is Sergeant Emilie Biggar, a deaf/hard of hearing, single mum, survivor, RPPFM Radio host and the woman who turned fleeing domestic violence into a full-blown comedy act. Sergeant Biggar went from dodging deadbeats to drilling them live onstage, but this time with military precision.

During this powerhouse show, she will break down the science of selective responsibility and why some men can use a compass, but still can’t find their own children. With gorgeous wit, raw honesty and a battlefield grade of resilience, Sergeant Biggar transforms her lived chaos into a laugh loaded masterclass on survival and the women who show up when men don’t.

It’s raw, hilarious and deeply relatable from one single mum to another, saluting the women doing it all and still looking sexy doing it.

Fall in line, or fall for her.
