Airdate: Debt-Defying Acts!

ABC2 screens Sydney Theatre Company's annual Wharf Revue with Jonathan Biggins, Drew Forsythe, Phillip Scott and Amanda Bishop.

As revealed last month by TV Tonight, ABC2 Live will screen the Sydney Theatre Company’s annual Wharf Revue, titled Debt-Defying Acts!

Featuring Jonathan Biggins, Drew Forsythe, Phillip Scott and Amanda Bishop this is sure to be rib-tickling fun, taking potshots at our pollies and the famous.

The only down-side is it’s programmed against Carols by Candlelight, ensuring the numbers will be modest. But a great antidote for those not in the festive mood…… and no, it isn’t actually Live.

Set your PVR.

Now in its twelfth year, the Sydney Theatre Company’s very popular Wharf Revue comes to ABC2 LIVE to sprinkle festive glitter and tinsel over your Christmas Eve with Debt Defying Acts!

This year, the Revue’s talented creators Jonathan Biggins, Drew Forsythe and Phillip Scott will be joined by the star of ABC1 comedy At Home with Julia, Amanda Bishop as she presents Julia, Flame Haired Temptress and Queen of the High Wire Balancing Act.

Jonathan Biggins, Drew Forsythe and Phillip Scott have been performing together for years, including TV comedy programs The Dingo Principle and Three Men and a Baby Grand. They are renowned for their sense of fun and sharp wit and this year’s Revue is sure to be full of its trademark satire of contemporary politics and popular culture.

Other highlights of the ‘must-see’ ABC2 Live: Debt Defying Acts! – The Wharf Revue include The Tragedy of King Rupert, Hacked Down in his Prime, The Amazing Greens: Australia’s Least Amusing Clowns!, Rudd Never Dies, Tony Abbott – The Evil Doctor No with his Invisible Mandate, and Assange and Robertson Novelty Whistle Blowers.

  1. It looks like “The Sorcerer’s Apprentices” – an absolutely brilliant satire on the talk back radio red-neck clowns who try to better 2GB’s Allan Jones – has been lopped from the special.

    A shame – very funny – but true….
