The Wharf Revue
PRIDE IN PREJUDICE
For more than 20 years The Wharf Revue has delivered razor-sharp
political satire to audiences in Sydney and around the country. Now,
it’s Melbourne’s turn!
From the creator of the smash
hit 'The Gospel According to Paul' that sold out its 2021 season at Arts
Centre, join Jonathan Biggins and the Revue’s Team of Rivals as they
step into the Melbourne spotlight with this year’s hilarious 'Pride in
Prejudice'.
Featuring a line-up of characters including Anthony
Albanese, Tanya Plibersek, Jacqui Lambie, Joe Biden, Sussan Ley and
Peter Dutton, and riffing off shows including 'Q&A', 'Play School',
Stephen Sondheim’s 'Company' and Rodgers & Hammerstein’s 'South
Pacific', 'Pride in Prejudice' is: 'The quintessential take down of
Australia’s most well-known pollies.' ABC.
'I feared
my face would crack from laughing so much' Sydney Morning Herald
'Pride
In Prejudice is as good as it gets; it is funny, comically tragic and
very targeted for an enthusiastic audience' Canberra City News
'The
laughs come non-stop, regardless of your political persuasion.'
