"Start Ya Bastard!" Widowed, Weirder & Wilder Than Ever!

Comedy • Music
New South Wales • Adelaide Fringe Premiere

The 'Start Ya Bastard!' show breaks down barriers for leggy blonde comedic songwriters everywhere! Louise Egan performs a collection of unapologetically naughty tunes, with 'no holds barred'.
Themes range from childbirth, flatulence, parenting and young widowhood, to Chinese food, bullies & lawn mowers! An iconically 'blue' show not to be missed!

★★★★★ "Top show! You're a star and will have a great future in Australian comedy!" Phil, audience member

★★★★★ "You've corrupted me!" Cecil, audience member

After a lengthy hiatus that saw her literally bury her spouse & biggest comedy advocate, Louise returns with a bigger & better presence, delivering an exciting mix of old classics & brand new observations - dead husband material included! She is the youthful epitome of political incorrectness!

Presented by: Louise Egan

Alongside the birth of her biological children came the birth of an album and a live show so gripping and outrageous that even prudish Aunt Martha couldn’t help giggling!

Louise shifted her butt from country rock to comedy and has since toured “Start Ya Bastard!” to many remote corners of our big red land. With new material ever-evolving and a bucket of life’s laughs to share with comedy lovers everywhere, you'd best be bracing yourselves for a show & a stage presence you'll never forget!

Start Ya Bastard's newest kick-start, "Widowed, Weirder & Wilder Than Ever" isn't in any way misleading - it's an exact description of Louise and her newest chapter!
