EdnafestArts & Theatre - Cabaret, Circus, Comedy and Theatre!
Barry Humphries show 'Back with a Vengeance' is very popular as he is back to his satirical best. David Williamson's play, 'Don's Party' also makes a welcome return as it is still as relevant today as it was in the 70's. Charlie Pickering is an award winning comedian, who will be performing at the Comedy Club. He is edgy, polished and inventive, possibly the most exciting new name in Australian comedy.
