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.

The Big HOO-HAA! presents

Thunderdome

Time to find out who definitively puts the Big in the Big HOO-HAA! 

Welcome to the THUNDERDOME, the highest stakes tournament in Melbourne improv!

An Australian improv comedy institution for over 20 years, The Big HOO-HAA began and grew from its Perth roots in 2003, spreading to Melbourne in 2010, and now resides across the seas in Wellington New Zealand! But therein lies a question on everyone's minds: which faction Hoo-Haa's the BEST?!

Then carried across the summer winds, an epic cry heralds the answer to that ultimate question - “Thunderdome!… Thunderdome!...”

Making its MICF debut, Thunderdome pits the three siblings against each other in a high-octane improv challenge arena! Each night they will battle it out for your laughter to collect as many points as possible, granting them the right to a faceoff in the bombastic Grand Finale. The best of the best will fight for glory, but in the end, only one improvising supergroup will rule the wasteland...

Choose your allegiance, and rally behind them as they traverse this tournament of terror.

Live comedy doesn’t get more edge-of-your-seat than this!

'Impossible not to have a good time.' Herald Sun
