Fiona O’Loughlin to appear at Perth Writers Festival
Fiona O’Loughlin is the funniest working mother in Australia today: a standup comedian based in Alice Springs, she has also had successful shows at the Edinburgh and Adelaide fringe festivals, the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Fiona’s first book, ‘Me Of The Never Never’ contains her stories – funny and sometimes sad stories – about her upbringing as part of a large Irish-Catholic family on a wheat farm in South Australia, her chaotic and disorganised family life ever since, living in Alice Springs and making it as a stand-up comedian. She also talks of a darker side of the life of many performers – alcohol.
