Review by Kimberly Moiler | 02 February 2025

Jon Bennett: American’t is a brilliantly crafted and expertly delivered masterpiece of comedic storytelling.

From the moment Bennett steps on stage, he takes the audience on a wild, chaotic journey—from his childhood, his career as a traveling artist, and through to his pandemic-era experiences. Stranded in the United States and eventually forced to return to rural South Australia, he masterfully chronicles his struggles, weaving together humor and heartbreak with effortless precision. It’s an unforgettable performance, a rollercoaster ride through the absurdities and poignant moments of life during a global crisis, all the while redefining ‘home.’

Bennett’s presence on stage is magnetic, drawing viewers into his most recent saga of a one-night stand hiccup, life in lockdown, family differences, immigration terrors, and an existential crisis. Each chapter of this story resonates, offering something for everyone while reinforcing life’s greatest lessons amid the chaos of the global event that tested us all. He doesn’t just recount these experiences; he inhabits them. His body language, facial expressions, and the emotion behind his vocal delivery transform him into his cast of characters, each one contributing to the rich tapestry of his American and Australian misadventures.

Jon Bennett proves that storytelling is not just a simple art form—it can be an immersive experience that transports the audience through space and time. His ability to breathe life into memory, evoking both laughter and deep reflection, showcases the true power of a master storyteller. One moment, the audience erupts in laughter; the next, they are left in stunned silence, absorbing the weight of his experiences. This dynamic interplay between comedy and introspection is a defining element of the show.

Jon Bennett: American’t is a journey into self-reflection, adversity, and triumph. With an electrifying mix of raw storytelling, razor-sharp wit, and one of the most entertaining PowerPoint slide decks I’ve seen, Bennett delivers a show that is wildly unpredictable, deeply personal, and exceptionally entertaining.
