Born out of her obsession with global politics and her love for biting satire, The Briefing is a genre-defying piece of character comedy. Join Melissa for an event that is part comedic press briefing, part character stand-up, and part improvised Q&A session.

Don’t forget to bring your questions!

“7:80“ is a satirical sketch Melissa made with Lance Turnbull as part of a commission from Melbourne Fringe Festival 2020 for their “Fringe Roulette“ digital comedy event. In it, Melissa uses her Sarah Huckabee character to reference a recent interview with Australian journalist Leigh Sales.
