This vibrant, uproarious journey delves into the heart of millennial and digital culture. Chris’ latest show, and fourth time at the Melbourne Comedy Festival, is one of our absolute favourites, as he navigates the complexities of social media, FOMO, the nostalgia of growing up in the digital age, and the universal quest for connection in a world dominated by screens.
Before the show has even started, Chris Parker is front and centre; welcoming the audience and putting on a show as he sings and dances his way through iconic pop hits – mostly because he’s afraid the audience will bond without him. The show covers everything from exploring the dynamics of group chats, the key differences between your 20s and 30s, and even the last time you kissed your dad on the mouth. Needless to say, Chris leaves no stone unturned.
Parker’s ability to blend humour with heartfelt stories shines through as he touches on the deepest most personal moments in his life, including his 11th birthday party. Come on a journey through millennial trends, social media pitfalls and the absurdities of internet culture. Chris is extraverted with a capital EXTRA, and his show is so relatable you’ll wonder if he’s been looking through your phone too.
