After more than 25 years of touring Australian shores, Arj Barker can finally call himself one of us. The much-loved comedian recently became an Australian citizen, and he’s got the paperwork to prove it. Naturally, he’s celebrating the occasion the only way he knows how – by hitting the road with The Eleventh Hour, officially his 11th national tour.

Expect a brand new hour of meticulously crafted material tackling some of life’s most pressing questions, including why nobody tells the truth on dating apps, whether there is, in fact a cure for FOMO (there is, and you do NOT want to miss it), and the questionable necessity for fire blankets. Because really, aren’t the fires probably warm enough already?

Arj Barker is one of Australia’s best-known comedians, having spent more than 25 years performing across the country. He has a worldwide following and has built an international career in stand-up, alongside television and acting roles including Dave in HBO’s Flight of the Conchords. Earlier this year, he was flown to the US by Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie of Flight of the Conchords to be the opening act for their new Netflix special.

He has also appeared on Just for Laughs and a host of Australian television programs, including Thank God You’re Here, Spicks and Specks and Have You Been Paying Attention.

It’s a joy to spend an hour in his world
