Carl Barron is yet again proving he is the nation’s favourite stand up comedian with his new tour ‘Drinking with a Fork’ with less than 100 tickets now remaining, ahead of this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
After setting box office records and selling out all of his 89 shows across 20 venues nationwide including Newcastle, Wagga Wagga, Albury, Wangaratta, Mount Isa, Canberra, Port Macquarie, Darwin, Lismore, Coffs Harbour, Toowoomba, Gladstone, Rockhampton, Grafton, Cairns, Mackay as well as the Regent Theatre for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Margaret Court Arena Melbourne, has been added to finish off the Melbourne leg of the tour on a much grander scale.
A Ticketmaster survey into the comedy industry revealed Barron as Australia’s most popular comedian and the third most popular comedian in the world* so it’s no surprise that his shows are selling fast, with one selling out in 90 minutes. “I don’t really know what to make of all that stuff. Percentages and this and that; I just like making people laugh.” Carl Barron commented.
