“Hello! This is Melanie Bracewell. From the telly and your dreams. I'm filming my very first special! It is the same show as my 2022 show (with a couple of my other best bits thrown in for good measure), but the tickets are way cheaper, and there will be cameras there to record the whole thing! Technology truly is amazing.
The show is about desperately trying to be remembered, love, and eggs.
I have chosen a ridiculously big venue so that the special looks cool, but it'll look even cooler if it's packed! If you loved my show last year and want to see it again, if you missed out, or if you don't remember any of the jokes, I'd love to see you there. Okay, I'm done; here are some of my achievements:”
- Melanie Bracewell
Melanie is just 27 years old and taking the comedy world by storm.
The Kiwi won the prestigious "Best Newcomer" award for her first solo show at the NZ International Comedy Festival. With goofy observations and natural stage charisma, Melanie is a master of anecdotes. In 2018, Melanie won the famed "Billy T Award"; in 2019, she performed as part of the invite-only Just For Laughs Comedy Festival at the Sydney Opera House, and in 2021 she won the coveted Directors' Choice Award at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
And she only got busier, co-hosting 'The Cheap Seats', which has just been renewed for 2023 and making regular appearances on 'Have you Been Paying Attention?' in Australia and New Zealand. When she's not on stage, Melanie is a social media powerhouse. Whether she's filming content for her TikTok channel, which has over eight million likes, writing for the more than 250,000 followers of her meladoodle.tumblr.com blog or desperately trying to get her jokes down to 140 characters for her slightly less popular Twitter profile, @meladoodle, Melanie has social media covered. Her tweets have been featured on Buzzfeed, Playboy (the funny parts not the nude parts) and the New York Times.
'Amusing extrapolations interspersed with snappy one-liners are fashioned into a blitzing, clever, supremely satisfying set. ‘
