"Lee’s comedy comes from the strength of his insight and his capacity to subvert expectations."
In his first Melbourne show Doghugger, Jono Lee offers audiences an energetic and warm presence, counter-balanced by his dark humour and twisted wit. Lee's comedy comes from the strength of his insight and his capacity to subvert expectations. Ostensibly a show written by a man who was once just a boy who loved dogs, he looks at the sometimes overly loving relationship between man and dog and through this paradigm explores many facets of life. Can comedy destroy relationships? Does a dog in a pram imbue its owner with sex appeal? Why do men love exfoliants? Jono Lee knows the answers.
