Stephen K Amos, Tracy Morgan, Jim Jefferies For Sydney Comedy Fest

The Sydney Comedy Festival has announced its selection of comedians for the 2013 event, with household names in comedy leading the way.

Verteran UK funnyman Stephen K Amos leads the bill with his brand new show while Australia's own Jim Jefferies leads the local contingent. Jefferies has scored himself a sitcom in the US and starting to be compared to the likes of Louis CK, he's lining up to be one of Australia's next global stars. 30 Rock star Tracy Morgan will return to Australian shores alongside The Wayans Brothers (Don't Be A Menace, White Chicks).

The full line-up features:

Stephen K Amos
Jim Jefferies
Tracy Morgan
The Wayans Brothers
Adrian Edmonson & The Bad Shepherds
Chopper's Bonza You Bewdy G'day Big F**kin ANZAC Day Show
The Kransky Sisters
Superwog & Mychonny
