Can't Be Franked - Frankie Marcos Comedy

Winner of the 2024 San Francisco International Comedy Competition, Frankie Marcos is back in Australia after nearly a year of shows in America.

Mexican and Filipino, Frankie brings a unique perspective as he talks about ADHD, culture, and the chaos of his life on and off stage. Blending heartfelt moments with razor-sharp jokes and crowd work, he delivers a beautiful tornado of stories and punchlines that’ll leave you laughing, relating, and maybe even wanting to adopt him. 'Can’t Be Franked' is an hour you won’t forget.
