Rolling Comedy
We at Wagon Productions have a new low risk, potentially high return take on the existing pub/club entertainment classic of Stand-up comedy. Rolling comedy has a basic principle – one month of comedy in a given venue and then we roll on. We provide one show per week over the course of one month - Four shows in total on a night that the venue chooses. It’s like a mini comedy festival and the finite number of shows creates a buzz within the local area. The novelty never wears off!
If you’re interested in becoming part of the Rolling Wagon please email us at info@thewagon.com.au for an information pack.

MATT OKINE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpCYCOYUDIc
Australian Comedian & Actor, Matt Okine, began his career by becoming a national Triple J RAW finalist in 2004, at the age of 18, after only 3 previous gigs (those being the preliminary stages of the competition!).
He was a 2Day FM Comedy God finalist later that year, and in January 2005, Matt took out the Brisbane New Comic of the Year competition. In 2006, he was in “Show Us Your Roots” at the Canberra Theatre, and was also a part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s ‘New Talent’ Showcase.
In late 2007, Matt performed on “Rove Live” after winning the Rove Live/Snickers Golden Nut Competition. He followed this with a sell-out show at the Melbourne Comedy Festival (2008) and was flown to Miami as part of NBC’s hit show, “Last Comic Standing”.
Most recently, Matt has appeared on Channel 7’s All Saints, Nickelodeon’s H20: Just Add Water, ABC2’s I Rock, and was a guest panellist on SBS’s “The Squiz”.
Matt is also co-writer and producer of the TV Pilot, Not Available.
With these achievements, along with several other TV and film acting appearances, Matt Okine is definitely one of Australia’s rising comic talents.
Jim Rochford
Sydney born and raised, Jim Rochford’s comedy has been described as “Serious discussion that accidentally ends up as comedy” (it’s Jim that says that). With a tongue permanently in cheek, his mischievous, satirical, storytelling approach has been working Sydney Stand up rooms for the past 3 years. Being born the middle child of five, Jim brings a lifetime of “unfortunate” stories to life on stage every night.
Jacques Barrett
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JN5oogDb_qE
A powerhouse of performance, Jacques has been carving up stages with his brand of insightful observational and impressionistic comedy for seven years now.
On the forefront of Sydney’s rapidly expanding comedy scene, Jacques is among a talented bunch of rising Australian stars whose unique brand of performance take a crowd on a journey they never thought possible. A style of comedy that is at once original but widely accessible, he can bend to fit absolutely any audience. A bankable act that never leaves a crowd disappointed.
“The bastard child of a really good comedian and another really good comedian”
Dave Callan
