Jack Docherty

David Bowie & Me: Parallel Lives

  • United Kingdom

BAFTA winner Jack Docherty brings his acclaimed show devoted to the Starman to Melbourne after a sell-out Edinburgh Fringe run.

Jack’s love of Bowie and the time spent with him on his chat show in 1997 kicks off an emotionally driven journey of comedy, as he takes audiences on an hilarious trip through the inner workings of his masterful mind – from families to teenage years, AI to culture wars, first love, hedonism, mortality and why you should always meet your heroes.

'Maverick genius.' The Herald (UK)

'A hugely talented comic performer.' Sunday Times (UK)

'It is simply impossible not to love what he does on a stage.' The Scotsman

'Extremely enjoyable piece about his connection with late, great starman.' Evening Standard (UK)

'A love letter to creativity, to music and to the teenagers we all once were.' Entertainment Now

Suitable for audiences 15+
