Laura Davis: Marco. Polo.
One of the year's best comedy shows.
Overview
The most memorable show we saw at this year's Melbourne International Comedy Festival returns to the stage as part of Melbourne Fringe. In a hilarious and occasionally confronting mix of stand-up and performance art, local comedian Laura Davis sits blindfolded, in her bathers, on top of a ladder, where she ruminates on everything from maple syrup to sexual assault. Marco. Polo. feels extraordinarily, even uncomfortably personal, to the point that it's not always clear whether you're even meant to be laughing. But by the time it's all said and done, you'll know you've just experienced something special.
