Presented by: Robyn Perkins

Robyn Perkins is a multi-award-winning comedian who likes to investigate life. A truly international performer, her "comedic gold" (XPress Magazine) is drawn from life’s biggest and most emotionally charged topics on stage, weaved together with personal, relatable, hilarious real-life anecdotes and often science. Robyn often uses her background in biology to answer life's biggest, and most trivial questions, of course through the lens of comedy. This has brought her international success, winning Sydney Fringe’s Comedy Award in 2019, a weekly comedy award at Perth Fringe World in 2020, and Best Comedy Act at Shaftesbury Fringe, 2023.

Audience participation is optional.
