The Short Laughs Comedy programme brings a delightful mix of offbeat Flickerfest shorts from Australia and around the world, guaranteed to entertain and uplift. Don’t miss Carcassonne-Acapulco, where a chance encounter at 30,000 feet sparks a surprisingly profound and funny existential debate whilst hurtling through the sky; Baby Blues, a sharply observed comedy that hilariously captures the anxieties, paranoia and emotional free-fall of new parenthood; and Shrimp Fried Rice, a warm and witty tale that finds humour in cultural misunderstandings, family expectations and the emotional significance of a humble takeaway meal and so much more!.PT1H40M2026-03-28Flickerfest Best of Shorts Laughs Comedy"Flickerfest Best of Shorts Laughs Comedy"Showtimes
