Get those belly laughs at the ready

Annual Perth festival Fringe World has just announced its line-up for next year's festival in January. The line-up features a host of leading names in comedy — both locally and abroad.
 
Funnyman Jeff Green is among the leading names on the bill. Born in Britain, Jeff currently resides in Melbourne - making his trip over to the west coast of Australia much less of a hassle. Alongside him at the festival will be comedy legend Ciel, YouTube sensations Alex Williamson and Neel Kolhatkar, as well as the “world's worst adult” Frenchy.
 
Singer Em Rusciano will be bringing her brand of comedy to the table, along with banjo playing comedian Alice Fraser. Nestled in between radio and movie shooting duties, Khaled Khalafella and Amos Gill will also be making an appearance at the festival.
 
An additional show has been scheduled at the Astor Theatre on 14 January adding Aussie stand up comedian and actor Joel Creasey to the line-up. Known to many as the Acid Tongue Prince, Creasey has achieved critical acclaim in the USA, UK and Canada - branding him one of Australia's best up-and-coming comedians.
 
Festival goers can catch all the comedians at Fringe World across six venues during late January and early February. Bookings for the shows can be made through the official festival website
