Jeromaia Detto
Giuseppe Detto's Taste of Little Italy
Step into the world of Giuseppe Detto — a passionate (and slightly chaotic) Italian food connoisseur — for a one-of-a-kind comedy experience through Melbourne’s Little Italy.
Created by award-winning comedian Jeromaia Detto, this is not your typical food tour… and definitely not your typical comedy show.
Part guided tasting, part improvised theatre, this interactive experience blends delicious Italian bites with unpredictable, laugh-out-loud moments, as Giuseppe leads you through his very personal take on Italian culture, cuisine, and identity.
Expect:
π A guided “tour” of Little Italy — led by a man who may be more lost than you are
π Improvised comedy shaped by the audience
π· Delicious tastings woven into the story
π€ Unexpected moments of connection, chaos, and maybe… romance
No two shows are ever the same.
Why this is different
This isn’t a show you watch — it’s one you’re part of.
Jeromaia’s signature clowning and improv style creates a space where the audience becomes part of the story, blurring the line between performer and guest. It’s a playful, immersive experience where you become part of Giuseppe’s love story — whether you like it or not.
Perfect for:
Comedy lovers looking for something completely different
Food lovers who enjoy a side of chaos with their pasta
Date night (high risk, high reward)
Comedy lovers ready to be part of the show
Anyone who’s ever wondered how Italians make everything feel romantic
Featuring tastings at iconic Little Italy institutions.
Suitable for audiences 18+
