Alanah Parkin's Garage Sale - Melbourne Fringe at The Motley Bauhaus

Nominee Best Comedy Award 2025 Melbourne Fringe

Greg and Denise have too much stuff! Narre Warren South's most notorious couple are moving to the retirement village up the road, and they can't possibly take everything with them.

Join Greg, Denise and a smorgasbord of increasingly unlikely characters at the greatest garage sale the south-eastern suburbs has ever seen!

You'll definitely find a bargain. You might even find out the big secret that Greg's been keeping from his wife for the past few decades.

Garage Sale is the debut solo character comedy from actor and improviser Alanah Parkin.

Directed by Isaac Haigh (Best Newcomer 2023 Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Winner Best Comedy 2022 Melbourne Fringe).

'Garage Sale is a bold, bizarre, and beautifully crafted piece of theatre – richly detailed, and wildly entertaining.' ½ On the House

'An absurdist world that pulled the rug out from under the delighted crowd's feet.' Hugging Comedians

'Completely ridiculous, unhinged, and absurd, and also completely brilliant.' The Funny Tonne

'Wonderfully unpredictable, somewhat chaotic... gloriously ridiculous.' The Age

'A finely tuned blend of sketch comedy and scripted work, turning an ordinary suburban sale into a hilariously surreal adventure.' My Melbourne Arts

'Equal parts nonsensical and illuminating. A crafty chameleon.' Praise Dionysus

'A superb showcase of Parkin’s talent for the absurd and an array of comic characters in a tale that goes places you could never guess and will never see again. It’s very silly and very funny.' Theatre First
