A doctor told me drinking would shorten my life. That’s not fair – I let the wine breathe, you’d think it’d return the favour. A show about health, stress and the 'healthy stress' of important decisions. When even the small things in life are against you, you may as well have a laugh about it.
After over 18 years in the game, Dave Thornton has built a reputation for being one of the best live stand-up comedians in the country. You may have seen him on The Project, Would I Lie to You? Australia, or Fox Sport’s The Back Page.
Ad free and streamed right from his mouth to your ears and eyeballs. If it’s an hour of laughs you’re after, this is where you’ll get them.

Event Access
Hearing Loop
Supper Room is equipped with a hearing loop throughout the performance space. Patrons can tune their own hearing aid device to the hearing loop to hear amplified sound. Melbourne Town Hall also has assistive listening devices with headphones available that can be borrowed for the duration of the performance.
Please refer to the How to Book Your Ticket section if you require the use of the hearing loop and/or assistive listening device in Supper Room. Please ask a Comedy Festival Front of House staff member for assistance when you arrive at the venue.
Security
Bag searches are required as a condition of entry to Melbourne Town Hall. Patrons are discouraged from bringing bags or items that are too large to fit under a seat to events. No outside food or drink is permitted into Melbourne Town Hall, other than water or for medical reasons. There is no storage or cloaking space available at the venue.
Venue Access
The entrance to Supper Room is via the main Swanston St entrance and the venue is on Level 3. There are three steps from street level leading to the portico and the entrance to the venue is via a doorway on the right-hand side (when facing the main steps). Once inside the doorway, three more steps leads to a large marble staircase and then it takes three flights of stairs to reach the Supper Room.
For step-free/wheelchair access, there is a ramp on the left-hand side of the portico from street level that leads directly to a doorway on the left-hand side. A small, sloped marble ramp leads towards a foyer and at the base of the large staircase, there are lifts on the left. The lift is then taken to Level 3, which opens out next to the bar and foyer space.
Accessible seating is available at the rear of the floor seats on both sides of the performance space. An accessible bathroom is available on Level 3.
Please see How to Book Your Ticket if you require step-free and/or wheelchair access in Supper Room and please see a Comedy Festival Front of House staff member when you arrive at the venue.
