The Paperboy's Paradox: Jokes Across Time
🌍 This is not the original world.
We are living in a Plan B timeline caused by a catastrophe in the past. I have the documents to prove it. I have the newspapers. 🗞️
A dark comedy about the ultimate butterfly effect 🦋, the idiots who caused it, and why we can never go back. Told via a real broadsheet you take home. Two issues free across Adelaide. The third one only at the show.
Previous editions exposed J.K. Rowling's hatred of trains. The Adelaide one covers the North Korean Comedy Festival of 2027, Ponygang's war on J. Jefferies, and leaked Netflix memos and tons of science from the future.
⏳ 15-minute show. Two hours of comedy. Five if you're a slow reader.
The truth is out there. I brought it. I'll give it to you. You won't be able to change the world, but at least you will know!
Two issues of the newspaper are available to pick up in the Adelaide Fringe area. If you want to pick up previous issues and meet the paperboy personally, visit the show.
