EAT PRAY LAUGH Barry Humphries Farewell Tour Visits Melbourne

Paul Dainty, Chairman of Dainty Group has announced that the iconic performer, satirist, artist and comedian Barry Humphries will take his final bow to Australian audiences during his farewell tour, "Eat Pray Laugh!". The tour will visit Her Majesty's Theatre, Melbourne from July 19.

Humphries, whose alter egos include inebriated cultural attaché, the Honorable Sir Les Patterson, and Moonee Ponds' legendary housewife, Dame Edna Everage, will perform a limited number of farewell shows from June to August this year.

While his famous creations are not officially retiring, Australia's greatest Dame insists that this will be her final tour.

"So, Possums, please do come and say goodbye to me. It would be lovely to see your faces for the last time," Dame Edna says.

Tickets for the Melbourne run go on sale to the general public on Fri 30 Mar, 9am.
