Celeste Barber’s Backup Dancer Regional Tour is coming to Tamworth this August!
Following sold-out shows around the world, Celeste Barber is bringing her hit show to new towns across Australia.
Since humble beginnings in Australia’s largest open mic competition RAW Comedy in 2015, Celeste has gone on to be internationally praised by likes of Variety; scored legions of fans including Reese Witherspoon, Amy Schumer, Chelsea Handler, Cindy Crawford Drew Barrymore and Tom Ford; and had her own special Fine, Thanks filmed at the Sydney Opera House released on Netflix.
She has starred in the number one Netflix series Wellmania, the worldwide hit Colin From Accounts and the award-winning ABC series The Letdown; in 2024 she featured in the Australian film Runt alongside Jai Courtney and Deb Mailman and earlier this year in the animated movie The Lost Tiger.
Her memoir Challenge Accepted! was released to critical acclaim in Australia, USA, France, Germany, Russia and Poland. In early 2020, she used her monumental platform to raise $52 million for the NSW RFS during Australia’s most devastating bushfire season.
Backup Dancer dives into everything from social satire to awkward personal anecdotes and her lifelong dream to be a backup dancer for Janet Jackson, all delivered with Barber’s trademark wit, physical comedy, and unfiltered charm.
Don’t miss your chance to spend an evening with one of the country’s sharpest comedic minds.
