Louis Nicoll

Lisztomania

  • Australia

They say playing piano makes you smarter, more creative, and even more empathetic. Well, that’s not going to stop Louis Nicoll, RAW Comedy semi-finalist (2023) and classical pianist (recovering), from performing his particular brand of so-called ‘comedy’ in Lisztomania. Part slideshow stand-up, part classical piano recital, part live zoom call from critically acclaimed classical crossover artist Andre Rieu,** Lisztomania is a comedy piano extravaganza all about the composer Franz Liszt. If you like, or even if you dislike, classical music and/or comedy, you’ll LOVE, or HATE, Lisztomania

Either way, you should come see the show. But it’s really up to you. I don’t want to force you to do anything. I also don’t want this to become one of those descriptions that’s too ‘meta’, so I’ll just leave you with this; the show will happen on particular dates that are listed below. If you not only purchase a ticket to see the show, but also arrive at the appointed time, you will be admit entry to see the show, and then you will finally understand and realise the meaning of life.

Love Louis

** PLEASE NOTE live zoom call from critically acclaimed classical crossover artist Andre Rieu may be cancelled due to liquidity issues.

Suitable for audiences 15+

Language – occasional coarse language
