David Quirk: Astonishing Obscurity
Part of Comedy Republic's Replay Festival

Sunday 16 July, 6:15pm
David Quirk quit comedy in 2017. He had had enough. Four years later, he emerged with a story about the day he ended a 32 year old family vendetta – A truth. A lie. Obsession. Stalking. Art. His brilliant football brother. His Immigration agent sister and an actual Prince lip sync dance thing that sent his career careering
…. and it was nominated for the biggest comedy prize in Australia.
DQ never left, but DQ is back. This is Astonishing Obscurity. Again.
“Brilliant...we've been on a journey
through Quirk's own curious mind, and what a ride it's been.” ★★★★ The
Age
“Witty, intelligent…The jokes may be
wry, but the huge grins in the audience are not” ★★★★ Arts
Hub
“While Quirk might have let himself
down as a human being, this is a triumphant show as a comedian” ★★★★ Chortle
