30 Before 30

The ‘30 Before 30’ list is a challenge I’ve set myself of 900 (30 items done 30 times) activities to complete before I turn 30 in 2023. The list is long and ambitious, in the posts below you can follow along with what I’ve already achieved and see where you can lend a hand. Click on the images below the graphs for a more indepth breakdown.

Perform Standup 30 Times

As a Christmas present back in 2015 I signed my Dad and I up for a Stand Up Comedy short course at a local community college. My intention was to finally, once and for all, confirm who was the funnier member of the family, a long running debate between us. The course ended in a show at the Balmain Workers Club in front of a crowd of about 80 people, including friends and family. It was a great experience and I performed a few times after that at university but never really kept it up like I wanted to.

So I’ve put Stand Up Comedy performances on this list as an excuse to deliberately write and perform comedy, the stipulations on this item are that it must be in front of a live audience and in a public space.
