Jimmy Carr shows in Melbourne always sell fast. He last packed out Hamer Hall and Palais Theatre—this time it’s a bigger stage, bigger crowd, and just as savage.
I saw Jimmy Carr live back in 2019—he roasted an entire row for showing up late. Zero mercy, but I laughed till I cried. If you love smart, fast, no-filter comedy, this is your night.
