Melbourne , Australia – March 22, 2016 /PressCable/ —

On March 25, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival is celebrating its 30th anniversary by offering a special sneak preview of the show Bugle Boys – A Salute to the Andrews Sisters. Tickets will cost just $15 for this first show, with the price rising for the remaining dates. The show will be running from March 25 to April 17.

The Melbourne International Comedy Festival has grown considerably since its inception. The first show hosted 56 events, but by last year’s offering that had increased to 550. To celebrate the landmark occasion of its 30th birthday, hotspots across the city will be playing host to comedy events for a month. The festival has garnered high praise for its wide variety of shows, with events for children and adults alike scheduled across the month long celebration.

The Bugle Boys comedy comedy/cabaret show sees three drag queens singing Andrew Sisters songs, dressed in costume throughout the performance. The Andrews Sisters were a popular close harmony singing trio who sold over 75 million records in the first half of the twentieth century. Their biggest hit, “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”, from which the comedy show takes its name, was considered an early example of rhythm and blues music.

Bugle Boys pays homage to the Andrews Sisters with its own brand of comedy flair, as Michael Dalton, Jon Jackson, Andrew Dessmann sing and dance their way through the bands most popular hits. Tickets are available to be bought online, alongside videos of previous shows so customers can see what to expect before they buy: http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=BUGLEBOY16&eg=MMBR&ep=bugleboys.

Other popular events gathering attention in the media include Al Murray, the famous pub landlord from England, and the Russell Howard World Tour that sees the stand up comic heading to Australia in 2017. Tom Green, the famous USA comedian whose show was called a “masterpiece of stand up brilliance” by AXS, is also returning to Australia for the comedy festival.
