Hi there Scoopers. I hope you’re keeping warm. I have changed the schedule of The Casey Scoop to fortnightly during the slower winter months, as there is a lot less outdoor events on the schedule. The upside is that there will be one less item in your email inbox. Woo hoo.

LIZZY HOO – DÉJÀ HOO - Live. Coming this September at Bunjil Place.
Have you ever felt like you’re just going through the motions? You have trouble savouring the moments when everything is so transient? You’re kind of stuck on repeat? This show is about the things we do (okay, maybe the things I have done) to get out of that: golf lessons, piano, pickle ball, overcommitting, overnight hikes, scuba diving, bungee jumping, first dates, dinners at fancy restaurants, jobs I’ve never dreamed of and romantic holidays all on my own. Expect oversharing and infectious charm plus a little bit of “nah that’s f*cked mate”. Book Tickets 

Anh Do, The Happiest Refugee - LIVE. Coming this October at Bunjil Place. 

Anh Do’s bestselling book The Happiest Refugee has made readers laugh and cry, and was described by Russell Crowe as 'the most surprising and inspiring read I have had in years.'
Anh’s stage show takes it a step further, combining stand-up comedy with real life stories, photos and filmed pieces to retell his amazing story.
When one of Australia’s most talented comedians delves deep into his own life’s joys and sorrows, the result is an unforgettable night at the theatre that leaves an audience uplifted and quite simply experiencing... happiness.

RAY O’LEARY - LAUGHTER? I HARDLY KNOW HER! Coming this October at Bunjil Place. 

Ray O’Leary (Taskmaster, Have You Been Paying Attention?) pulled a man from a wrecked car and as the man lay dying, he used his last ounce of strength to ask Ray (Best Show Nominee at the 2024 Melbourne International Comedy Festival) to tell his children that he loved them. And Ray (who sold out tours to Melbourne, Edinburgh, and more) will get around to it, but first, he has to do this comedy show.
