Bart Freebairn


In his own words: "Born from a freak accident of a falling star hitting a Dragonclown convention I appeared on stages a few years after and since have made audiences giggle, chortle and guffaw with lively and quirky stylings along with threats for money. On the up and up in the comedy world I somehow won the cougar bourbon new comic of the year (2005) where the final task was to wrestle some enraged monkeys over a bourbon soaked tiger carcass. Lets just say it was lucky I knew some ancient Chinese pressure points for large cake monsters and primates. I have also been a finalist in the (2006) Raw Comedy Competition, which allowed me to head down to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and appear on the ABC Raw Comedy Special where I was all sexy and funny and stuff lol rofl noob.  I now travel to Sydney and Melbourne to make laughing times in the big smoke.  Pleased to meet you."
