NOLA BLISS: COMEDY FOR THE LADIES

Fresh from being named the 2025 runner-up for Australia’s Funniest Boomers, Nola Bliss returns to FRINGE WORLD with Comedy for the Ladies - a joyous, unfiltered celebration of marriage, kids, friendship and the glorious mess of womanhood. Nola’s lived experience powers sharp, relatable storytelling and big, belly-laugh payoffs. Expect warmth, bite and that “I feel seen” glow. With hand-picked support acts adding extra sparkle, this is the girls’ night that delivers catharsis and cackles in equal measure.

Bring your besties and let Nola remind you that owning your story is the funniest thing of all!
