Scout Boxall

God's Favourite

  • Australia

Nominee Best Comedy 2024 Melbourne Fringe 

Winner Best Comedy 2023 Adelaide Fringe

Nominee Best Newcomer 2021 Melbourne International Comedy Festival 

Winner Best Emerging Artist 2019 Melbourne Fringe 

After getting stranded in regional Victoria without medication for the first time in 12 years, Scout Boxall has to pull out all the psychological stops to survive one of the worst nights of their life. During their harrowing mental marathon through manic withdrawal, Scout imagines life in the Middle Ages, trawls the strangest crevices of the Internet and (briefly) finds God.

As seen on The Weekly with Charlie Pickering, Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala and ABC's Austin, Scout Boxall is one of the most exciting new talents in Australian comedy. Their work swings between pithy observational stand-up and manic, chaotic powerpoint comedy with a sharp political awareness.
