Dylan Bird is joined by Comedian Oliver Coleman to chat about his new stand-up show for Melbourne International Comedy Festival The Ballad of Oliver Coleman, the vulnerability of pulling from his own experiences, how a show evolves over time, working with a director.

“The thing about comedy that I loved was the liveness of it – being connected with an audience entirely in the moment – and sometimes it’s a rollercoaster because it can be great and bad … but that’s kind of the thrill and fun of it.”
