Comedy for the Community!

Our ethos is ‘Comedy for the Community’ with a focus on diversity and inclusion through the positive and connecting power of joy and laughter.
About Us
Footscray Comedy Club was established in November 2020 by local award-winning comedians Jameel Rehman and Sam Gebreselassie after the first major Melbourne lockdowns, partnering with local businesses to produce comedy shows that have entertained the local community with great success and helped restore local industry.
The club is proud of its integration with the community, with shows featuring a diverse range of cultural backgrounds through its ‘Comedy at Jambo’ show and the
LGBTQIA+ community through its ‘Pride Comedy’ show.
In 2023 and beyond, Footscray Comedy Club wishes to establish itself as a premium local
entertainment experience and a leader in Melbourne’s comedy and performing arts scene.
