A show so gloriously wrong, it couldn't be any righter. One night only!

'A funny, tightly written and cleverly performed show'
FUNNY TONNE

'This is one of the funniest, and most awkwardly embarrassing nights you'll have - four and a half stars'
THE AGE

* * *

The Needle And The Damage Done is a joyous romp through a top ten of the worst music ever released in the history of the world, from someone who's been collecting bad vinyl since she was old enough to shoplift a Rolf Harris record. Since selling out at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, stand-up comic and DJ Fiona Scott-Norman has performed Needle at The Sydney Opera House, won a Green Room Innovation in Cabaret Award, and appeared on ABC TV's Collectors.

Part slide-show, part show and tell, part cabaret, part stand-up, and directed by Comedy Inc's Paul McCarthy, The Needle And The Damage Done takes audiences on an hysterical journey through the appalling musical excesses of William Shatner, VFL footballers, christians, Bernard King, white supremacists, Torville and Dean, racists, and John Laws. Two parts nostalgia, two parts cultural satire, ten parts shock and awe comedy.

Written by Fiona Scott-Norman
