Justin Hamilton: Hoot!

StarStarStarStar

"His approach this year is honest, down-to-earth and more of a live telling of a biography yet to be written."

Born and raised in South Australia, Justin Hamilton now resides in Sydney: a scenery change that has brought with it a raft problems, from rent price to working out what suburb it is that he's actually living in.

This dictates the first little portion of Hamilton's show, which by his own admission is something he pulled together in a short amount of time. Not because he is unprepared, but because he lost his father figure (Hamilton grew up only knowing his mother) in David Bowie. The events that transpired post-Bowie have clearly shaped Hamilton's comedy. His approach this year is honest, down-to-earth and more of a live telling of a biography yet to be written. It's thoughtful and funny, and it will most certainly have you playing Bowie the moment you get home.
