showcase new work, alongside big name guest performers.

 

A horde of secret special guests will be joining the Homework residents to confess the embarrassing true stories of their worst gigs ever.


From a knife to the throat to getting rugby-tackled by security, the Time Out Critics’ Choice awarded sell-out cabaret club will host a night of hilarious, cringe-worthy true confessions.

‘brilliantly, ingeniously shit... the future success of Aisle16 is undeniable’
– SCOTTISH POETRY REVIEW

What’s the worst way to die? In a fire? Buried alive? Ask any performer, and they’ll say: ‘On stage.’

Inspired by hit US storytelling night The Moth, Homework’s season finale features

toe-curling true tales of cut mikes, murderous pirate builders, and working as a door-to-door salesman in Sydney.

To make the last show of the season extra special, several secret guests will appear to confess to their own woeful experiences.

Previous secret guests at Homework have included Brit award winner Kate Nash, Fringe award winner Tim Key, Brass Eye star Kevin Eldon and the Sony award nominated journalist and film maker Jon Ronson.
