All Bangers, No Mash is basically Episode 11 of Australia’s Happiest Venezuelan Import becoming  a full blooded ‘strayan! 

Cards on the table, I look forward to seeing Ivan Aristeguieta perform at Adelaide Fringe every year. He always seems to be happy and excited to be on stage, which makes for a really up beat show which is exactly what the audience got in All Bangers, No Mash. 

All Bangers, No Mash is a collection of stories from the last ten years that have moved Ivan Aristeguieta  from naive  immigrant on a bridging visa to a man educated in the ways of Straya. 

I loved the show. I love hearing stories about Straya told through Ivan Aristeguieta’s hopeful and engaging eyes. I can’t help but laugh when Ivan Aristeguieta talks about first impressions of some uniquely Strayan actives I never really give a second thought to. Maybe slightly funnier are his stories about overcoming complete failures where ‘Strayan life is completely not what was advertised! 

Ivan Aristeguieta has outdone himself with All Bangers No Mash. I found the show really up beat and engaging and just plain funny. I would see All Bangers No Mash again in a heartbeat. Ivan Aristeguieta Is Hilarious! Do yourselves a favour and get tickets.
