- PACC presents a night of live comedy with Accessible Arts and Crips & Creeps in association with Arts on Tour -
Showcasing some of Australia’s funniest comedians with disability or chronic illness, this raucous accessible comedy event boasts a line-up of award-winning performers.
With razor-sharp wit and undeniable charm, the Are You Pulling My Leg? line-up brings to the stage hilarious and uncensored insights into disability. From awkward encounters to side-splitting observations that cut to the quick, no subject is off-limits. Venturing much further than disability, their quick quips highlight the many facets of their lives, relationships, experiences and personalities.
Discover for yourself that disabled comedians are just as funny as non-disabled comedians! The biggest joke is that they don’t always get equal access to gigs, so support this show, have a laugh and help make a difference. It’s that easy!
This show will be live captioned and Auslan interpreted to help everyone get the punchlines.

Coarse language, sexual references, drug references, adult content and dangerously good-looking people. Strictly 18 years + (it's a bit naughty!)

Review Quotes
“Crips & Creeps holds a fresh and unique position in the modern Sydney Comedy scene. By many accounts C&C has evolved past its core concept as an accessible stand-up gig, by developing a new niche of live comedy.” – Theatre Travels
on Madeleine Stewart
“Personal, inviting and hot… Could easily lose your breath from laughing” - Theatre Travels
“A refreshing and exciting voice to the comedy circuit”- My Melbourne Arts
on Sam Wade
"A deep, intelligent, perceptive, lateral thinker who keeps the audience engaged ... far more talented than many household-name comedians who fill large rooms." - Sydney Chic
"A consummate comedian that reduced his audience to tears of laughter"- Glam Adelaide
on Irene Nicola
“She is also one of the most confident performers to ever (literally) bare it all and not appear to give two s***s.” - Glam Adelaide
