Melbourne International Comedy Festival acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which we work and live. We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' spirit, imagination and rich history of storytelling and humour that is an inspiration to all Australians.

We accept the invitation to walk together with First Nations people towards a more positive future for Australia, as described in the Uluru Statement From The Heart.

Liv McKenzie & Becky Umbers I Can't Believe I Shaved For This (New Zealand)

Liv McKenzie & Becky Umbers I Can't Believe I Shaved For This (NZ)

Ever gotten all glammed up and ended up in a Nandos listening to how indoor rock climbing changed a 26-year-old finance bro’s life? NZ comedians and hot messes Liv McKenzie and Becky Umbers might not have their shit together, but their jokes are definitely worth shaving for.

Liv McKenzie is a stand-up comedian from Christchurch, New Zealand. She’s a 2024 Billy T Award Nominee, the winner of Best Newcomer at the 2019 NZ International Comedy Festivaland the  host of TVNZ+'s new show, Cubicle Confessions. You may have seen her on 7 Days, Have You Been Paying Attention NZ and The NZ Comedy Gala

'Having won Best Newcomer at the 2019 festival, McKenzie is clearly a star on the rise, after witnessing a full half-hour from her and marvelling at her confident, exuberant delivery, I wouldn't be surprised to see bigger successes from her in the festivals to come.' NZ Herald

Becky Umbers is a multi-award-winning comedian who you might have seen on 7 Days, The NZ Comedy Gala and The Project NZ. She works as a writer for a variety of shows and has performed throughout NZ and in Australia, with a unique take on life and the voice to match. A Finalist in Act of the Year at the Edinburgh Fringe 2023, Winner of Best Debut at the 2019 New Zealand International Comedy Festival and nominated for Best Female Comedian by the NZ Comedy Guild 2022, Becky is a delightful regular on the New Zealand comedy scene.
