Presentation is Everything

Comedy • Stand-up
Victoria • SA Premiere

The antidote to every bland lecture, dull pitch and boring presentation you’ve ever had to endure. Presentation is Everything is an hour of fast-paced stand-up comedy, visually complemented through the medium of Microsoft PowerPoint.

Written and performed by two of Melbourne's fastest-rising comedians Sweeney Preston and Ethan Cavanagh, this split bill show is packed with slides full of images, news cut-outs, maps, animations and (you guessed it) graphs to punctuate their quick-witted stand-up.

After sell-out seasons at Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Sydney Fringe, and armed with outfits they can’t afford and a .ppt file they can’t attach to an email, this is a show where presentation truly is everything.
