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.

Prepare to be dazzled, delighted, and utterly disarmed by Cabaret Unscripted, the unique and hilarious improvised musical comedy. This isn't just any cabaret; it's your cabaret, creatively crafted from audience suggestions and transformed into an electrifying evening of improvised music, comedy, and cabaret charm. Award-winning talents Isabella Valette and Greg Lavell draw you into a world of 1930s cabaret, melding razor-sharp wit with stellar musicality.

Long-standing luminaries in Melbourne's improv scene, Isabella and Greg have delighted audiences across Australia and the U.K. with their musical comedy. With over 10 years’ experience and an electric chemistry between them, Valette and Lavell bring the house down with their quick wit, musical prowess, and an uncanny ability to create magic on the spot.  Having spent years delighting audiences in 'Impromptunes', 'Spontaneous Broadway', and 'The Big HOO-HAA!', this new project Cabaret Unscripted is must-see masterpiece of improv musical comedy.

"Fabulous chemistry between the two performers, ridiculous dancing, over the top musical numbers, super singing and musicianship." Fringe Cabaret Judge
