Casey (the comedian).
Casey is an award-winning comedian performing both stand up and character comedy. Since beginning in 2020, Casey has performed across Australia and internationally supporting Luke Kidgell on his sold out 2023 'Cheers to That' tour of the UK, Blake Pavey on his 2024 Australian Tour 'Still Kicking' and Reuben Solo on his 2024 European tour 'Please Clap'.
​
Casey's debut solo show, Virtuoso, debuted at the Adelaide Fringe in 2024. After only a short run he was awarded the 'Take a Chance on Adelaide' Award recognising a stand out show from a newcomer to the festival. Casey then brought the show to Melbourne International Comedy Festival where the show enjoyed an extended season due to popular demand.
​
Virtuoso was then programmed at the prestigious Pleasance Courtyard at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe, where it enjoyed multiple sell-out shows and was awarded Mervyn Stutter's Pick of the Fringe.
The show then played at Sydney Fringe receiving a shortlisting for 'Best in Theatre' before returning to Melbourne for the Melbourne Fringe Festival where it received five stars from The Age in which the show was called "Utterly brilliant and bizarre comedy". It was selected as one of the 'Judge's Picks' of the festival.
