Melbourne International Comedy Festival acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which we work and live. We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' spirit, imagination and rich history of storytelling and humour that is an inspiration to all Australians.

We accept the invitation to walk together with First Nations people towards a more positive future for Australia, as described in the Uluru Statement From The Heart.

Melbourne International Comedy Festival and The Wheeler Centre present

In Conversation With Fern Brady: Strong Female Character (UK)

Fern Brady, one of the UK’s most exciting stand-ups, comes to The Wheeler Centre to discuss her bestselling book Strong Female Character as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Hosted by Australian stand-up comedian and writer Laura Davis this event promises to be an insightful and funny look at Fern’s writing process.

For one night only, Brady will be in conversation to discuss everything from her Catholic upbringing to her experience of homelessness and her late diagnosis of autism.

Released in paperback this February, this debut book made the Sunday Times Bestseller list, was named one of The Times’ 2023 Books of the Year, Apple’s Best Audiobook of 2023 and Audible Book of the Year.

Having recently graced the small screen in Taskmaster UK and The Last Leg, Brady will also share her raw and honest stories with audiences across Australia in her new touring show I Gave You Milk To Drink.
