Asher Treleaven - Matador
Tue 20 - Sun 25 Mar 2012
Multi-award winner Asher Treleaven is back with a brand new show following his debut at Brisbane Comedy Festival 2011.
Cerebral and challenging, inspiring and idiosyncratic, Matador stares down the subject of having to deal with other people’s racism from the point of view of a middle class white guy.
Start with a man in slightly tight pants, add an intriguing tale of how he got lost in the Thai jungle in nothing but his Speedos and you’ll end up with a night of socially responsible comedy told with wit and wisdom. Oh, and cock jokes.
"A born comedian with a sharp mind and engrossingly confident delivery, comparisons to Barry Humphries don’t overstate Treleaven’s talent.” - The Age
"Matador is not only a reflection of Treleaven’s subtle comedic genius in the interpretation of social constructs, but also of the artist’s developing aptitude for seducing his audiences around the world." - Arts Hub
