Issy Coomber: Assigned Puppet At Birth

Date: Tuesday 23 June 2026

Start: 18:30:00

Venue: The Eternity Playhouse

Location: Darlinghurst

Price: $32.00 - $35.00

It's 'Assigned Puppet At Birth' with very special guest, Issy Coomber! Following an incredible season at the Adelaide Fringe, join Issy as they navigate life as a trans person in an often unaccepting industry, while simultaneously paying homage to a certain variety TV show hosted by a very charming (and deliberately unnamed) felt frog. Issy dives into the importance of queer community (or shall we say, rainbow connection - wink wink) and choosing joy as a form of resistance. A cabaret clusterf**k of completely original music, jaw-dropping vocals, side-splitting comedy, bitter-sweet stories, terrific tap-dancing, and lots and lots of puppets, 'Assigned Puppet At Birth' is as joyfully camp as it is bitingly authentic. This show was previously called 'The Lovers, The Dreamers & Me' before Issy was sent a mildly stern email about copyright laws from a certain large entertainment corporation. Now, it has a beautiful new chosen name so Issy doesn't get sued!
