You’re taking part inThe Big Day, a comedy evening about the cringiest and funniest wedding stories. Should audiences be more prepared to laugh or cry?

Firstly, everyone at all times should be prepared to laugh or cry, that’s just life. The audience though, they should be prepared to cry from laughter.

Comedians often get booked as wedding MCs. Have you ever made any jokes you regret?

Thankfully, I haven’t made any jokes that I regret. There’s still time – I might do one at the show, The Big Day at Giant Dwarf Theatre in Redfern from 7pm.

Is there such thing as a wedding speech that’s so bad it’s good?

Yes there is. I have yet to see one. All the weddings I’ve been to, the speeches were very mature and classy.

Is there a way to identify the wedding guest most likely to embarrass themselves in advance – or do these things happen at random?

It’s always the uncles. You have to keep your eyes out for the uncles.

You’re a comedian from the west of Sydney, a place that so many other comics like to make cheap jokes about. What’s your go-to target for geographical humour?

The equator. They’ve had it too good for too long.

The Big Day takes place atGiant Dwarf on Monday February 15, with music by Smart Casual and DJ Marks n Spencer. Dress Code: It’s a wedding!
