Skitch Tease
An intimately revealing comic cabaret with the acclaimed Liz Skitch.It’s like she’s working magic on the audience.
Wearing nothing but heels, fishnets and a strategically placed accordion, no one is safe in this tell-all tale of Liz’s extraordinary life. With “sugar-coated viciousness” (DB Magazine) she tackles ex-boyfriends, her mum, empty headed teenage girls, banal tourists, babies and baboons.
Dripping with double entendre Skitch Tease has a rollicking old vaudeville feel; it’s naughty but nice – Marilyn Monroe meets Judith Lucy with a pinch of Jerry Lewis.
Skitch Tease is a fast-paced accordion accompanied blend of songs, stories and sensational punch lines.
Skitch Tease premiered at the 2010 Adelaide Fringe Festival and has since wowed audiences at The Adelaide Fringe Festival, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Woodford Folk Festival, and in the UK at Brighton Fringe Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival and Glastonbury Festival.

Guilt laden laughter remains with you well after the show, the dark pall of her cheeky accordion ringing in your ears.
