Alex Williamson brings to us his latest show, So Wrong, It’s Wrong

Due to popular demand, Global comedy sensation Alex Williamson has just added an encore show (Athenaeum Theatre, Friday 25 May – pop it in the calendar) to follow a string of sold out shows at this years Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Amounting to 2.5 million followers and hundreds of millions of views across his social media platforms, Williamson began performing in 2007 and went on to be a state finalist in triple j’s 2009 RAW comedy competition. After a stint in radio, he moved to Los Angeles where he performed duties for The How Hits Live from LA and gathered content from various A-List celebrities at red carpet events.
In 2012, Williamson brought his online characters, songs and stand-up comedy to life in a hilarious live solo show ‘Alex Williamson and Friends’. This show and his following shows have sold out
countless times at all major comedy festivals since 2012, with last year alone selling out festival seasons across Australia and the UK, as well as two tours across New Zealand and Australia.
Fast forward six years and Williamson has crafted a name for himself through his unique brand of vulgar, yobbo comedy. Now he is taking his latest stand up show ‘So Wrong, It’s Wrong’ across Australia for a 13-date national tour after performing at the Adelaide Fringe, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, New Zealand Comedy Festival, Sydney Comedy Festival and Perth Comedy Festival. Labelled ‘crude, yet hilarious’ and ‘unfiltered, politically incorrect and downright naughty’, So Wrong, It’s Wrong has been summed up by the phrase ‘drugs, pedos and terrorists’ from the blurb on the MICF website. In saying that, you probably won’t want to bring your highly religious grandma to this one!
Be prepared for his twisted outlook to shake your faith in humanity, before restoring it ever so slightly and then smashing it once again, in this one-hour session of complete and utter honesty.
Tickets to all shows are now on sale.
When & Where: Athenaeum Theatre, Melbourne – May 25, Albury Entertainment Centre, Albury – June 2, Capital Theatre, Bendigo – June 22 & Westside Theatre, Shepparton – June 23.
