From its beginnings in 2004, what’s now known as Trade Aid has been combining festival artists, music and laughter to raise over $25,000 for important community organizations.
2010 sees the return of Melbourne's hottest sketch-comedy celebration, the Anarchist Guild Social Committee AGM, raising money for Peter Mac Cancer research.
Featuring the all-star Anarchist Guild Social Committee cast:

and NICK CADDAYE ('Caddaye has a wonderful stage presence' - The Enthusiast).
