The Goodies

The Goodies tour is returning to Australia!
01/09/2005 10:00 GMT

Posted by lisa

Here's some exciting news - the Goodies live stage show is returning to Australia!  To quote from the press release, "The Goodies Still Alive On Stage stars UK comic legends Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden.  Bill Oddie will feature in the show from London via the wonders of video.  The Goodies Still Alive On Stage returns in a new form to continue the tour that may never end, hopefully satisfying demands from every Australian town and city for a Goodies visit."

To answer some of your anticipated questions:

Q: Which cities will the tour be visiting? When do tickets go on sale?
A: Tickets for Perth will go on sale this coming Monday, 5 September, at 8:30am. The show date is Friday, 18 Nov at 7:00pm. Tickets can be purchased through 08 9484 1133 or the box office of His Majesty's Theatre Perth (www.bocsticketing.com.au).

Further dates and cities to be confirmed. 


Q: Will there be ticket pre-sales for club members?
A: While the producers were unable to set-up ticket pre-sales they have arranged to offer a limited amount of PREFERENTIAL SEATING for the club.  In Perth, this will be available for the Fri, 18 November 7:00pm show.  When you order your tickets (from 08 9484 1133 or the box office) you must mention the code word.  The code word has been emailed to the goodies-l mailing list; it is also available to registered users of the website.  If you are logged in you will find the code word in a box on the left side of the page.

Please note that the preferential seats are available on a first come, first served basis.  As there is only a VERY LIMITED number of these seats I advise you to book early for the best chance of getting them.


Q: Why is Bill only participating by video?
A: Despite his best efforts, Bill wasn't able to reschedule all his filming commitments in order to join Tim and Graeme live in Australia (as fan club members will know, Bill has a heavy travel & filming schedule for his BBC nature shows).


Q: When will we hear about additional show dates and cities?
A: Again, further dates are being confirmed; the club has been promised updates as soon as they are available.  While I cannot guarantee this, I believe we will have further information by the end of next week.


Use the "click here for more" link (in the bottom corner of this box) to see a parital press release about the tour. You can view the tour flyer at http://mysite.verizon.net/vze7yes3/thegoodiesstillaliveonstage/

Updates will be posted as they become available.

The Goodies Still Alive On Stage

Show Information


"The combination of a weak heart and a sense of humour could prove fatal during their world premier show Still Alive on Stage" - The Sydney Morning Herald (03/03/05)

The Goodies Still Alive On Stage stars UK comic legends Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden.  Bill Oddie will feature in the show from London via the wonders of video.  The Goodies Still Alive On Stage returns in a new form to continue the tour that may never end, hopefully satisfying demands from every Australian town and city for a Goodies visit.   

Tim, Graeme and Bill are the most loved and prolific of all UK comedians The Goodies live stage show is a heady and hilarious mix of insights and reminiscences with bits and pieces of sketches and clips with tall tales.  The Sydney Morning Herald (3/03/05) wrote of Still Alive on Stage "… age has not wearied their genius for the ridiculous" and Melbourne’s The Age (10/03/05) "The skits have hardly dated. Superb!"

Still Alive On Stage will include Goodies bits banned from the ABC, The Funky Gibbon sung live, sketches from the student revue that took The Goodies to Broadway, no on stage trandem riding Tim’s Union Jack Waistcoat and possibly fireworks (insurance pending!)

The Goodies Still Alive on Stage was produced by The Big Laugh Comedy Festival Sydney and toured in March this year after premiering at Riverside Theatres Parramatta .  The show played in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane selling out everywhere it went.  Still Alive On Stage  gives the rest of Australia a chance to hang out with Tim and Graeme, enjoy cyber Bill and to check out The Goodies favourite bits and piece of video and tall tales.

"So, after 35 years after their birth, can they still cut it? And having grown up, would they still have us in fits of belly laughs? Yes and Yes." The Age 8/03/05

Big Laugh Comedy Festival, AKA and Hocking & Vigo.
