RYDGES \ HOTELS & LOCATIONS \ MELBOURNE CBD \ LOCAL AREA \ WHAT'S ON \ DAVID STRASSMAN – CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR...
Coming Up...
David Strassman returns to Melbourne with his all new show "Careful what you wish for "at the Athenaeum Theatre from the 7th November 2012.
Alternate realities? Parallel universes? Strassman's side-splitting new show tumbles down the rabbit hole - a mind-bending journey where nothing is as it seems.
Chuck and Ted E. Bare are back, transformed by a strange 'wish" into bizzaro-alternate selves. The road home may be scary for Strassman... but an hilarious scream for us!
Rest your funny bones after the show at Rydges Melbourne hotel located down the road from the Athenaeum Theatre, speak to our Reservations Team 1800 333 104 or BOOK ONLINE.
