Coming out of the telly and right onto stage is Hard Quiz Live, hosted by the one and only Gold Logie Award winning Tom Gleeson. With the Big Brass Mug in tow, Gleeson’s beloved quiz show is now within grasp for viewers, as it heads on its national tour.
Hosted in Melbourne’s Town Hall, Hard Quiz Live gives the audience members the chance to be part of the show, and get roasted in the process. On the particular date we booked in, the show had some absolute crackers of contestants – and Gleeson spared no feelings firing out plenty of snarky comments, much to the audience’s delight.
In between rounds, Gleeson runs through the show’s highlights over the years; with most reels having the audience crying with laughter. It’s a celebration of sorts, for the beloved quiz show we’ve all seen throughout the years, which is now in its seventh season on the ABC.
So for the chance to enter a battle of the wits against fellow fans, share the stage with Tom Gleeson, and get strips torn off you, check out Hard Quiz Live – running until 9 April.
