Cadet Kelly is the Best Movie I've Ever Seen in my Friggin Life
Nominated for Best Comedy: Melbourne Fringe Festival 2024
Day and night Ben’s mind is ablaze with the 2002 Disney Channel Original Movie, Cadet Kelly. His sleep schedule has been INTERRUPTED. He knows what you're thinking, "I don't know this movie". That's fine, take a seat and let Ben let you know what you don't know. People are sleeping on this and it's time to be VIOLENTLY SHAKEN AWAKE.
Ben’s unhinged chaotic love letter to Disney Channel Original Movies earned him a nomination for Best Comedy at Melbourne Fringe and rave reviews.
Ben McCarthy is an improviser and comedian who's been performing comedy for over ten years. Don’t miss his first ever solo show to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival!
Judge's Praise:
"Whether you're a fan of the movie or have never seen it, this is a must-see show!"
"I have no idea what I just watched, but my cheeks hurt from laughing, and I want to see it again. A fever dream in the best way."
"So silly and absurd - very nostalgic in the best ways!"
Audience comments:
‘Utterly balls to the walls bonkers in every way imaginable. Delightfully manic.’ Ryan
‘Ben has complete control of his audience, it's a wonder to watch a master at work. This show is hilarious and ridiculous, it's a treat.’ Eliza
‘No one else is doing this kind of nuanced but absolutely bonkers absurdism. Ben is masterful with the audience and has no fear. It’s amazing. GO.’ Sophie
‘Ben McCarthy is ridiculously entertaining & his show is face achingly hilarious. It cannot be explained, it just needs to be experienced. By everyone.’ Amanda
