Trea Young
30 is the New 69
A dark, funny fairytale where princes cheat, quests fail and happily-ever-after is cancelled. One comedian fights for love with jokes as her only weapon.
Welcome to the chaotic fairytale of turning 30… the version no one warned you about.
In 30 IS THE NEW 69, comedian Trea Young dives headfirst into the romantic delusion, emotional addiction and unhinged optimism that have powered her through a decade of dating disasters and questionable life choices.
This is not the fairytale your mother read to you. This is the fairytale where the princess is chronically online, the prince has commitment issues and the only thing magical is how many red flags you can ignore when you’re lonely.
Part stand-up comedy, part emotional excavation, part “oh no, girl… don’t do that,” Trea unpacks:
- hitting 30 and realising your life is more plot twist than plan
- dating as an Asian woman in the West (and dealing with all the fetish energy that comes with it)
- why her exes range from a lifeguard-turned-fireman to a man who made cheating his part-time job
- fairytale fantasies colliding with real-life therapy bills
- the emotional gymnastics required to pretend you’re fine when you’re absolutely not
- and how sometimes you have to ruin your own life a little to figure out what you actually want.
With a mix of sharp jokes, self-roasting vulnerability and just enough sexual chaos to make your therapist nervous, Trea turns heartbreak into punchlines and trauma into triumph. Her comedic voice blends cultural clash, millennial burnout and fearless honesty – proving that doing life 'wrong' can be hilariously right.
30 IS THE NEW 69 is for anyone who’s ever turned 30 and thought:
Wait… this is adulthood?
It’s for the delusional romantics, the slow learners, the girls who love too hard – and the ones who swear they’re done with toxic men every Sunday night only to text them again on Tuesday morning.
It’s messy.
It’s funny.
It’s brutally real.
And it’s the most fun you’ll have watching someone unravel onstage on purpose.
Trea Young brings her wildfire storytelling, unfiltered charm and fearless perspective to Melbourne International Comedy Festival in a stand-up hour that’s equal parts confession, chaos and catharsis.
Because turning 30 doesn’t mean growing up – it just means the plot gets thicker, the stakes get dumber and the mistakes get funnier.
Welcome to 30 IS THE NEW 69. Bring your friends, bring your ex, bring someone you regret sleeping with – you’ll all feel seen.
Strictly for audiences 18+
Language – occasional coarse language
