Dave Hughes - Cooked
At the AFL Legends Charity Game earlier this year, Hughesy limped off the field with five broken ribs, a punctured lung - but not before kicking a goal. Legend! And true to form, he even made it to the afterparty. Weeks later, and as bruises were fading, he returned to hospital with fluid in his lungs. "I was close to death and still getting some of the biggest laughs of my life. Wouldn’t have it any other way!” said Hughesy.
In his new show Cooked, expect stories about getting flattened on a football field, near-death experiences, family antics and daily mishaps - all told by the man who survived the year and lived to laugh about it.
There is no one else that comes close to the phenomenon that is Dave Hughes. Behind that cooked looking facade is a mind that works like no other.
Dave has carved out a large place in the Australian cultural landscape for good reason. His take on the world around him is unique, ever changing, and not to be missed. His shows are events that live long in the memory.
Now more brutally honest than ever, not only is he Australia’s best stand-up comedian, he is as good as it gets anywhere on the planet.
“A master of his trade.” ★★★★★ The Advertiser
