Shrinkwrapped: A Psychologist Analyses Comedians, Live on Stage
Ever wondered what makes comedians tick? Or why they can’t stop talking about their mums? Finally, a show that puts funny people on the couch – literally!
Join award-winning science comedian Robyn Perkins and actual-real-life psychologist Dr. Carolyne Keenan for the most entertaining therapy sessions you’ll ever witness. In this trial run of Shrink Wrapped, watch as brave (and thus-far undiagnosed) guest comedians perform their best material, before submitting themselves to gentle psychological probing in front of a live audience. Don’t worry, we’ve got more safe words than a BDSM convention!
Discover how childhood trauma becomes comedy gold, and see what happens when you mix professional analysis with professional attention-seeking.
Don’t miss this hilarious unique blend of psychology, stand-up, and people who probably should have dealt with their issues privately.
