Mike Rice
Cruel Little Man
Irish rising star Mike Rice makes his Australian debut with a rapid-fire hour of darkly twisted storytelling. The Kilkenny native talks about trying psychedelics with his brother, an entanglement with a Spanish sausage dog named Nino, and many other such rotten adventures.
Following a sold-out run at the 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, appearances on Channel 4’s A Comedy Thing and as heard on his Guide To Parenting podcast with Vittorio Angelone, Mike Rice is set to win the hearts of audiences across Australia with a distinctive comedic voice that’s equal parts unfiltered, loose and dangerously charming.
‘A phenomenal wordsmith, and world class raconteur.’ ★★★★½ Chortle (UK)
‘Darkly twisted… sharply layered gags and frantic energy.’ ★★★★★ Edinburgh Reviews
Suitable for audiences 18+
