Jack Docherty - David Bowie & Me - Parallel Lives
The BAFTA winner brings his acclaimed show devoted to the Starman to Adelaide after a sell-out Edinburgh Fringe run.
Jack’s love of Bowie and the time spent with him on his chat show in 1997 kicks off an emotionally driven journey of comedy as he takes audiences on a hilarious trip through the inner workings of his masterful mind, from families to teenage years, AI to culture wars, first love, hedonism, mortality and why you should always meet your heroes.
