James Donald Forbes McCann: Aussie and Proud

Comedy • Stand Up
South Australia • World Premiere
Australia is hurting. James is not talking about the plague or the bushfires. We've seen off worse than that before. James is talking about the namby-pamby inner-city parasites who hate this great nation, and their greedy tycoon overlords. James loves Australia. James loves it even more than his comedy awards and accolades, which are extensive.

James has consistently sold out every Adelaide Fringe since 2016, picked up the 2019 Adelaide Fringe Weekly Award for Best Comedy, was voted by Adelaide's comedians as the best in the city with a Best Comedian award for three years running in 2016 - 2018 in addition to picking up a gong for Best Writer in 2017 and 2018 and being crowned the 2018 Adelaide Comedian of the Year.

Don't miss James' brand new hour at Adelaide Fringe!
