Geraldine Quinn - Bastard Joy

Geraldine Quinn ('Spicks and Specks', ‘The Project', 'Eurovision: Australia Decides') makes her Fringe Mount Gambier debut with her thrilling electroclash meld of music doco and club night that skewers the vanity project. 

A sleeper Melbourne Comedy Festival hit, 'Bastard Joy' is a high-octane original synth-dipped hyperpop cabaret described as "chaotic", "a masterclass in high art ridiculousness" and "a really funny, weird slapper of a show".

Nominated for FOUR Victorian Green Room Awards for CABARET in 2025, including Outstanding Artiste, Outstanding Production Design and Outstanding Original Songs.

Part revisionist history, part gig, part the banginest club you've ever blagged your way into - all glorious Bastard Joy.
