Enough Airdate on Channel 10: October 10th

Posted on by

 

Stand-up special Tom Ballard: Enough, which has previously screened on Paramount+, has a Free to Air screening on 10 in October.

The special was filmed at Chapel off Chapel in Melbourne in late 2021.

Tom Ballard’s had Enough. He’s had enough of COVID, anti-vaxxers, being lonely, culture wars, the super wealthy, capitalism and Baby Boomers. He’s over it. But he’s determined to fix all these things by yelling horrible jokes about them in a beautiful venue. Ballard’s fearless, he’s unrelenting and he is at his white-hot rage best in Enough.

10:10pm Monday October 10 on 10! Is that deliberate?

GREATEST HITS (PENDING) @ SYDNEY FRINGE COMEDY 2022

Posted on by

 

Tom Ballard (Triple J Breakfast, ABC’s Tonightly) and Tommy Dassalo (The Little Dum Dum Club, Filthy Casuals) are two beautiful stand-up comedians. You may have seen some of their best jokes on The Gala and Just For Laughs Australia. But those best jokes have to come from somewhere, which is where you come in. Join Tom and Tommy for an evening of work-in-progress bits, ideas, and riffs. Witness the unbridled joy when a new premise soars and shed a tearwhen a punchline absolutely bombs. It’s cheap! 

 

BOOK NOW!
