Pretty Woman

Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny

Tuesday April 21 and 22, 8pm, RAC Arena, Perth

The UK comedian tells jokes like magnets: some people are attracted to them, others are repelled far away. If you love his brand of acerbic, quick-fire humour — and many do — Carr is bringing all-new material to this show, but you can count on his darkly funny, razor-sharp wit to be the same as ever.

Tickets $91.65 to $101.85 from Ticketek

Elouise Eftos

Thursday April 23, 8.30pm, Astor Theatre, Mt Lawley

WA Comedian Elouise Eftos brings her new show to town, Aphrodite. Exploring love, dating and why it’s super hard to be hot AND funny, expect outrageous one-liners and a lot of dancing as Eftos transforms the Astor into a Mt Olympus discotheque.

Tickets $35 from Ticketek

Maximo Park

Thursday April 23, 7pm, Freo Social, Fremantle

UK rockers Maximo Park return to Australia to mark the 20th anniversary of their album, A Certain Trigger. The band will play tracks from that album alongside hits from their expansive back catalogue. Expect to hear mega hits like Apply Some Pressure, Graffiti and Going Missing.
