Title:Â The Wharf Revue: The End Of The Wharf As We Know It
Presented By:Â QPAC and Soft Tread

Synopsis: After twenty-five years of sharp political satire, The Wharf Revue is coming to an end. This high-energy revue blends sketches, musical numbers, and hilarious parodies to offer a witty reflection on the year's political landscape. Returning favourites such as former PMs Keating, Rudd, Gillard, and Howard, as well as contemporary figures like Dutton and Senators Hanson and Lambie, provide the perfect send-off to this iconic show. With their incisive and often biting humour, The Wharf Revue is a must-see for anyone looking to laugh and squirm at the truth of Australian politics.
