George Rigden - Self-Inflicted at Motley Spielhaus
Dates: 3/23/2026 - 4/19/2026
📍 Theatre: Motley Spielhaus
Melbourne International Comedy Festival
432 Queen Street
Melbourne, Victoria 3000
In 2020, George Rigden was roundly (and rightly) cancelled, and his life fell apart. In 2025, he was finally diagnosed with autism, finally sobered up - and began to put his life back together.
Now, more than half a decade on from his life falling apart, he’s finally stable (and sober) enough to talk about it.
An interactive musical comedy show about attempted redemption, coming to understand yourself & self-improvement, while also staying true to yourself.
A hilarious, heart-wrenching musical romp through the life of someone who’s been to hell and back through their own self-destructibe tendencies, and lived to tell the tale. (Its funnier than it sounds. A lot funnier.)
