Event Details

Australia’s queen of comedy, Celeste Barber, has announced a 2024 Australian tour of her new show Backup Dancer. Backup Dancer promises to tackle a range of big political topics from freeing nipples and inappropriately texting therapists, to what it would really be like to be Taylor Swift’s backup dancer. A night of jokes, hilarious storytelling and a lot of high kicks.

Thrilled to be touring her new show, Celeste said, “I'm excited to tell some jokes, relive some awkward memories and high kick my way across the stage with my new show Backup Dancer.”
