Love a laugh? Enjoy local gin? Then get yourself down to the Port on the last Thursday of every month for new comedy night, Gin & Comics.
After a hugely successful opening night in April, Cold Blooded Comedy’s Gin & Comics returns this month for another evening of hilarity, spotlighting some of Australia’s best up-and-coming comics.
Held at the iconic Milledge’s Distillation in Port Adelaide, this new comedy room highlights local and touring comics alongside some of the best Aussie small-batch gin going around.
While two recent noise complaints have put Milledge’s in the crosshairs, the venue are doubling down on their commitment to providing a welcoming space for comics to showcase their wit, with Gin & Comics “bringing laughter, local spirit, and a big middle finger to noise complaints!”
“Milledge’s has always been about craft – craft spirits, craft experiences, and now, craft comedy,” says Clay McMath, founder of Cold Blooded Comedy and MC of the inaugural show. “We’re not just putting on a gig – we’re starting a movement. A very funny, slightly tipsy movement.”
This month’s edition of Gin & Comics is MCed by funnyman Justin Sorre, with stand-up sets from Nona Mona, Clay McMath, Bill Egan and Granny Flaps, aka award-winning comedian Lori Bell.
Grab a few friends and head along for a night of laughs, gin and good times.
