As the Easter long-weekend dawns… and something far less wholesome than a chocolate egg is hatching in the hardware aisles. For the first time, the cult returns during Melbourne International Comedy Festival, just as the Easter rush hits fever pitch. The team’s red polos are freshly ironed, name badges polished to divine shine and each of them has spent the past months perfecting rituals that would make the Easter Bunny drop its basket and sprint.

After sell-out seasons and cult-level devotion, the lore deepens. The rituals sharpen. The bunny lurks. And the discounts, somehow, get more suspicious.

Step once more into the fluorescent-lit fever dream of the world’s most spiritually compromised hardware store. This hour of improvised comedy dives into the DIY delirium of Bunnings in April – where dreams are built with power tools, spiritual awakening can be found between the mulch bags and the ominous rabbit figure in the outdoor furniture section definitely wasn’t part of corporate’s seasonal décor plan.

Your Easter-inspired renovation ideas spark a new improvised saga each night: tales of loyalty, lunacy and chocolate-smeared chaos as the staff battle long weekends, bustling crowds and the growing suspicion that the giant shadow hopping past the lighting department is not human… or animatronic.

This is a show about spiritual yearning, workplace madness and Easter dread – an absurd odyssey that asks the question on everyone’s lips: why is the Easter Bunny frothing at the mouth, and why is it holding an Allen key?

No prior worship required but returning disciples may notice: the cult has evolved and a rabbit has arrived. The Easter long weekend is just the beginning…
