Opening Night All Stars hosted by Paul McDermott April 1, 2009

On the hallowed Day of Fools, the Crusaders of Comedy will gather. Their mission: to raise the roof of the historic Princess Theatre with gargantuan guffaws, marking the official opening of the 2009 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

You may have missed out on the Gala. You might have seen the Gala and wanted more. Either way the Allstars Supershow, with its all-star sparkling line-up of some of the sassiest local and international comedians this globe has to offer, is sure to bring the house down in an uproarious night of glitz and giggles.

So many top shelf comedians. One giant bill. This must-see spectacular curtain raiser is gonna be smokin'.
