Dysfunctional Family Jukebox
Freddie used to think she had a normal family. Now she's letting all the skeletons (& herself) out of the closet. Come meet Mum/Terri, the homophobic closeted lesbian; Dad/Wayne, the violent hopeless romantic; and Cousin Mike, the public masturbator. Through dark comedy and the weirdest songs you've ever heard, Freddie will expose her family's deepest secrets. The all-original tracklist includes 'Smacking My Kids' and 'I Know I'm A Good Mother Because My Children Aren't Gay.' If you've ever wanted to feel better about your own relations, come meet Freddie's Dysfunctional Family Jukebox.
Directed by award-winning director, Marcel Blanch-De Wilt.
'A quietly unhinged onstage presence, so keen to see what Freddie does next' - Scout Boxall

Presented by: Freddie Arthur
Freddie is a comedian and MC, originally from Mildura and now based in Melbourne. She draws on lived experience to explore difficult topics such as domestic violence, mental illness and Queer-phobia. Two years ago, due to chronic PTSD and OCD, Freddie was struggling to leave her own house. Then she started stand-up comedy which has been instrumental in helping her accept her own Queer identity and mental health struggles.
In 2024 she produced and hosted the sold-out Queer compilation show, Crackpot Comedy at Melbourne International Comedy Festival. She performed as part of the Gala show at the 2024 Bendigo Comedy Festival, and in over 30 shows at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
