Sammy J

Hero Complex

  • Australia

Sammy J's award-winning, mind-blowing tale returns with bonus content and fresh surprises!

30 years ago, Sammy J traded comics with his school gardener. Ten years ago, he wrote a show about it. How does an awkward nerd end up with a federal policeman searching his attic? Why does Sammy owe his marriage to the United Nations? And how did he insert himself into a Parliamentary maiden speech?

Hero Complex is the five-star, must-see show of Sammy J’s career - a real-life, hilarious comic book adventure that proves sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction.

Hero Complex won Best Comedy at Melbourne Fringe in 2016 and in 2017 was nominated for Most Outstanding Show Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Best Comedy at Adelaide Fringe.

'Hero Complex is, quite simply, comic genius.' ★★★★★ Adelaide Advertiser

'A heartwarming hour that may just blow your mind.' ★★★★★ Arts Hub

'A near flawless, beautifully crafted tale.' ★★★★★ The Music

Directed by Chris McDonald

Suitable for audiences 13+
