The MILF Next Door
After sold out shows at Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Melbourne Fringe, Marilyn Leder brings her hilarious mix of comedy and song about dating as a newly separated 50 year old Jewish mamma to Adelaide.
What happens when a nice Jewish 50-year-old lecturer leaves her freeloading husband and discovers sexy and energetic younger men? Female empowerment, baby!
When a 32-year-old hottie makes advances as she’s tending to her slow-cooked lamb, he’s so young and the oxytocin flows so fast, she nearly starts lactating. Never has her kitchen seen so much action!
The MILF Next Door is directed by Jeremy Stanford, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
"Raunchy, action-packed and full of laughs" The Age
"Pure comic genius! Funny, sexy delightful!" Tim Ferguson, Doug Anthony All Stars
Presented by: Marilyn Leder
Marilyn Leder performs stand-up comedy widely in Melbourne and previously in L.A. at The Improv and The Comedy Store where she likes to brag that Chris Rock once supported her (he pushed in before her set to test some material). She is a film and television lecturer, screenwriter and script assessor and interned at Twentieth Century Fox for Jason Alexander and also at NBC Television, searching for new writers for 'Seinfeld', 'Frasier' and 'Friends'. She toured Australasia in the original production of 'Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story' musical and was the co-creator and co-writer of critically acclaimed television comedy, ‘Whatever Happened to That Guy?’, an Australian version of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'. She sings blues, soul and jazz regularly at various Melbourne bars.
