ROD QUANTOCK
Rod Quantock is one of Australia's most loved comics and identities. Rod sprang from architecture revues in the early seventies going on to create the landmark series, Australia You're Standing In It. Rod is one of the reasons that Melbourne is the live comedy capital of Australia. Rod's live shows in the 1997, 1998, 1999 & 2000 Melbourne Comedy Festivals were sell outs. In 1997 Rod received the Green Room Award for Best Fringe/Comedy Event for his show, Sunrise Boulevard. Rod was a regular on the Ten Network's Good News Week.

BRAD OAKES
Brad works very hard to make every gig a winner. Brad's 'get amongst it' approach can give the false impression that you're involved in a conversation, but there is always a punch line looming, ready to slug you right between the eyes. Brad is extremely good at judging an audience which makes him perfect for difficult crowds as well as better behaved ones. An exceptional talent.
