Wearing nothing but heels, fishnets and a strategically placed
accordion, no one is safe in this tell-all tale of Liz’s
extraordinary life. With “sugar-coated viciousness” (DB Magazine)
she tackles ex-boyfriends, her mum, empty headed teenage girls, banal
tourists, babies and baboons. Skitch Tease premiered at the Adelaide
Fringe Festival and has since wowed audiences at Melbourne
International Comedy Festival, Woodford Folk Festival, and in the UK
at Brighton Fringe Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival and Glastonbury
Festival. Dripping with double entendre Skitch Tease has a rollicking
old vaudeville feel; it’s naughty but nice – Marilyn Monroe meets
Judith Lucy with a pinch of Jerry Lewis. Skitch Tease is a fast-paced
accordion accompanied blend of songs, stories and sensational punch
lines. Liz Skitch has been entertaining audiences with her
helium-injected comedy for the past 10 years. She has performed in
festivals, cabaret and comedy clubs across Australia and the UK.
Trained in clown with Philippe Gaulier, Liz went on to tour Europe as
a street theatre performer. A key creative of debase productions, she
has also performed for Queensland Theatre Company, Bell Shakespeare
and is currently based in Melbourne. “One of Queensland’s
brightest, most energetic and most colourful stage performers; a
clown, a comic; a box of sparklers set alight and tossed into the
night sky. Whiz. Bang. Boom.” The Courier Mail
