The much-loved comedy troupe, made up of Joe Salanitri, Carlo Salanitri, and Andrew Manfre, have experienced unimaginable success with their OFF THE BOAT TOUR — seeing it grow from an initial seven shows to a staggering 38 dates.

And now, due to massive demand, they have added a series of encore shows in Brisbane, Sydney, Wollongong, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth, as well as new shows here in Traralgon and Ballarat!

KINNE LIVE

You’ve seen him on his sketch comedy show KINNE TONIGHT, now don’t miss this opportunity to see him live on stage!!!

Friday 17 June | 8PM | GPAC Theatre

Troy Kinne is best known for his own TV shows Kinne (Ch7) and Kinne Tonight (Ch10).

However, it is more likely that you have seen him in one of his many viral videos on Facebook and YouTube. ‘Kinne videos’ have been shared all over the world resulting in over 1 million followers on social media. 

Yet before social media was even a ‘thing’, Kinne was already making his mark on the live stand-up comedy scene winning several new comic competitions. 

Comedy Knockout - Search for a Funny Bone - Winner

Comic’s Lounge - You Gotta Be Jokin’ - Winner

A-List Entertainment - Green Faces - Winner

Upon request, Kinne has entertained our Army Troops in East Timor, Afghanistan, the Solomon Islands, and in 2018 he sold out every show of his live tour around Australia's major cities.

Now after enduring lockdowns that shut us off to almost all forms of entertainment, Kinne is bringing his live show back for his home state of Victoria, acknowledging the regional towns who have more than earned a night out of the house.  

"A rapid-fire night of Laughs" - Herald Sun

"Comic Genius" - The Daily Telegraph

"One of Australia's best new talents" - The Daily Telegraph

"Bottom clenchingly funny" - The Groggy Squirrel
