Stew Walker
Cricket Is a Funny Game
Nominee Best Musical, Cabaret or Variety Show 2020 Fringe at the Edge of the World
After smashing a century on debut at the 2024 Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Cricket Is a Funny Game is back for a second innings and the fun rate is higher than ever!
If you love cricket, music and laughter, don’t miss award-nominated musical comedian Stew Walker‘s hilarious homage to the world’s funniest sport.
Enjoy silly songs and clever observational humour inspired by Stew’s life as a cricket tragic who rose from backyard, beach, school and club cricket, to the dizzying heights of playing cricket at Lord’s – in the carpark!
When it comes to cricket, the only thing funnier than this show is Jonny Bairstow’s understanding of the spirit of cricket!
