Word nerds and grammar police unite! It’s The Inaugural Annual Comedy Spelling Bee and we’re pitching a line-up of some of the best comedians in the world against one another in a take-no-prisoners, i-before-e(-except-after-c) battle to the well-spelled death.

Featuring:
Virginia Gay (Winners and Losers)
Tegan Higginbotham (Have You Been Paying Attention)
Dilruk Jayasinha (It’s A Date)
Broden Kelly (Aunty Donna) 
Kevin Kropinyeri (Deadly Funny)
Kate McLennan (The Katering Show)
Liam Ryan (Written it Down)

Spelling, anagrams, wrestling, one-liners, some good old fashioned perspicacity – it's all coming atcha in the most hardcore, intense and brutal spelling competition this city has ever seen. So grab your dictionary, eat your thesaurus and scoop up a copy of Strunk and White, because eight will enter the Spelling Bee, but only one will leave... with a prize.

The rest will leave with the warm sense of satisfaction that they did their best.

LET THE CARNAGE BEGIN!

DOORS OPEN @ 7.30PM

All proceeds go to The Indigenous Literacy Fund
