Daniel Connell (As seen on the MICF Gala and Comedy Allstars (ABC)) brings his brand-new show to the Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute for one night only.

Are you nursing some physical (and emotional) aches from life knocking you about as you get older? They say laughter is the best medicine, and luckily for you, affable Aussie comic Daniel Connell is taking the stage with I’m Always Sore, his humorous ode to the pains of fatherhood and ageing.

Get some friends together and come down for a laugh.

’55 minutes of exquisitely judged middlebrow Australian humour. ‘

– The Age

“Connell is so endlessly watchable that it’s genuinely difficult to imagine someone not enjoying his work. A career-best and a festival highlight”

– The Funny Tonne
