I suspect most of you who'd be interested have heard about this already anyway, but I have a new little comedy show in this year's Melbourne Fringe Festival, opening tonight. It's about Dungeons & Dragons, though you don't need to have played it to enjoy the show. It's an hour of Richard McKenzie and I revelling in this, one of our favourite hobbies, with plenty of silliness and jokes and mental behaviour. Say hi if you come down!

+1 Sword
Dragons. Dungeons. Not necessarily in that order.
In 1974, a pair of idiots invented Dungeons & Dragons, the first role-playing game. 35 years later, a different pair of idiots – comedy nerds Richard McKenzie (Super Happy Robot Hour, Mint Condition) and Ben McKenzie (Melbourne Museum Comedy Tour, Planet Nerd) – will polish the twenty-sided dice, sharpen the +1 swords and open a bag of holding full of tales of adventure, danger and laughs.
The only comedy show which grants a bonus to attack and damage rolls.
Where: The Vault, Caz Reitops Dirty Secrets, 80 Smith Street, Collingwood
When: Thursday to Sunday, September 24 to October 4, 2009 at 6:30 PM (5:30 PM Sundays)
Bookings: Fringe Tix: melbournefringe.com.au or 03 9660 9666
