Dave Hughes

Dave Hughes Live is a rare chance to glimpse Dave Hughes in his natural environment – on stage with a mic in his hand. In his comedy DVD debut Hughesy kills, slaughters and slays the 2000 seat Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide.

While Melbourne was locked down, Dave Hughes was trending. He went viral during the pandemic and managed to get himself in trouble with pretty much everyone. Luckily, Hughesy is zen. He is at peace with the chaos he creates, knowing that from great turmoil comes even greater material. Hughesy has always attacked his comedy like a man with nothing to lose. A week hasn't gone by in the last 25 years that Hughesy hasn't done stand up, whether headlining an iconic theatre or jumping up at a tiny club. What has worried him that day becomes fodder for that night's material. To him, every audience is a great crowd and they should never forget that.

Near the end of World War II, the survivors of a torpedoed hospital ship cling to life aboard a crowded lifeboat. With no food, water, or shelter, all seems lost – until an eerily silent German minesweeper drifts ominously towards them, giving them one last chance at survival. As our motley crew explores the ship, it becomes all too clear that some diabolical fate has befallen its German crew. The mystery only deepens when they encounter a young Romanian girl, apparently the sole survivor, who leads them to a locked room in the bowels of the vessel.

The only thing Dave Hughes is handy for is a laugh, which is handy given he calls himself a comedian. Hes made a handy name for himself on radio and TV as a funny man but live on stage is where Hughesy began (& continues to shine). Whats handy for you is that hes recorded his latest sell out show for you to watch from the comfort of your couch. DVD extras include an intimate club gig and candid at home footage of Hughesy and family.

Filmed live at the Sydney Comedy Store, Pointless is Dave Hughes 2014 Comedy Show. Often referred to as “a typical Aussie bloke”, Dave Hughes is actually an unusual success story.

His honesty and laconic humour have led to several long-term hosting roles on television and radio, most recently on The Project and Nova 100. However in 2014, Hughesy has returned to his first love – stand-up comedy – and is the hottest comedy act touring nationally and internationally.

The Glass House was a half-hour Australian comedy talk show which screened on the ABC from 2001 to 2006. It was hosted by stand-up comedian Wil Anderson, and co-hosted by fellow television and radio comedians Corinne Grant and Dave Hughes. Two additional guests joined the regular cast each week, including musicians, politicians, actors, radio personalities and other celebrities of varying calibre, such as Young Australian of the Year winners and Olympic athletes. Regular guests included comedians Adam Spencer and Akmal Saleh, netballer Liz Ellis, Play School host Rhys Muldoon, musician Pinky Beecroft, and music critic Molly Meldrum. The show thrived on taking regular shots at, among others, Shannon Noll, Amanda Vanstone, Naomi Robson, Shane Warne and Peter Costello. The format of the programme is similar to that of the BBC series, Have I Got News for You. The show was pre-recorded in front of a live audience in the ABC's Sydney studio on Tuesday evenings. During the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the show was taped inside the Melbourne Town Hall. The program initially screened on Friday nights, but suffered from an inconsistent timeslot, resulting in humorous TV spots, for example 9:30 Friday...probably. In 2005, The Glass House shifted to a more reliable timeslot on Wednesday at 9:35pm.

Hosted by Hamish Macdonald, Q&A puts punters, pollies and pundits together in the studio to thrash out the hot issues of the week. It's about democracy in action - the audience gets to ask the questions.
