LatestWe drop in on a game of chess where a Blackfella questions why whites always go first, the Tooth Fairy spits the dummy, and we go to court to witness a showdown between good and evil in ‘Deconstructed Bully Beef Stew’.
A sketch comedy show by Blackfellas... for everyone! Featuring a fantastic ensemble cast of Indigenous writers and performers and includes many special guest cameo appearances. Meet some of the lively characters including, the Tiddas - two of the most competitive, over the top gay Blackfellas; Mavis the mean-mouthed cleaning woman; the Housewives of Narromine and Deadly Dave who can fix anything. Black Comedy is irreverent, politically incorrect and goes where no other series can go.
Writing
Steven Oliver's rapid-fire wordplay is linguistic warfare.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Created in response to decades of Indigenous representation written by white writers; this was controlled narrative chaos.
