Oliver Pol: Featherbrained

Featherbrained

Melbourne Fringe Festival

Enter the mind of a certified overthinker and marvel at the pop-culture ephemera and thought spirals within. Join Oliver in accepting and embracing uncertainty and silliness. Explore the way of the goose.

It's weird, it's charming, it's an unnecessarily deep dive into the avian brain.

Fresh from critically acclaimed seasons at the New Zealand Fringe Festival and New Zealand International Comedy Festival, Oliver and his bevy of geese (some metaphorical mind-geese, some actually quite adorable toy geese) are flapping their way over to Melbourne for the first time.

Reviews:
"An exciting, propulsive show...Pol's comedy is propelled by a manic, anxious, sometimes anxiety-inducing, but always charming energy that captures the audience" - The Post

"He finds the humour in hard-hitting topics with tact and sensitivity...I absolutely adore his unhinged comedic stylings" - Regional News Wellington

"There wasn't a single lull. Pol's humour is sharp and intelligent without losing its sense of fun." - The Wellingtonista

Nominated - Best Newcomer, Wellington: NZ International Comedy Festival, 2026
