Holy Bin Amoley is a series of thematically connected skits, performed by a talented cast of three whose synergistic dynamic will amuse and delight audiences of all ages. Sam, Nick, and Jen from Art for Earthlings are here to become their best bin selves. What does that mean? Nobody knows, but they 100% definitely get there in the end.

A colourful and versatile backdrop is incorporated into the storytelling in more ways than seems possible. It is impressive how much can be done with so little. It is testament to the ability of the actors and the concept itself how far they are able to push the boundaries of what they’ve set out to accomplish. With wigs, hats, colourful costumes and dirty nappies, this competent cast of ridiculous characters teach kids how to put rubbish in bins (harder than it sounds) with absurd expertise, and side splitting comedic delivery.

Who will win the Little Miss Bin Pageant? Contestant number one, Ruby Rubbish? Contestant number two, Corrina Compostina? Or contestant number three, Rhonda Recycling? No one wins, but it's okay, because it's funny.

A character scoots onstage the tune of The Donnas, with a bag of trash, which is promptly dumped on the floor. Shortly thereafter, two giant bin chickens - I mean two majestic ibis - arrive to clean up the mess with unveiled threats and fake real-chickenry.

A dog show, a TikTok act, and a carton of almond milk escaping the tip are hilarious highlights among a variety of absurd situations guaranteed to make your cheeks ache with laughter.

Despite the unifying trash-related messaging, Holy Bin Amoley is neither preachy nor boring. It is relevant, witty, and meme-aware.

Suitable for all ages, this is one kids show that the parents will enjoy just as much as the target demographic.
