Last year, Ballard brought two news shows to the MICF; both of which were nominated for the Barry Award. One of them was his 'comedy lecture' Boundless Plains to Share, which he'll reprise this year for one night only (Sat Apr 22).
But for brand new Ballard, book your tickets now for Problematic. Given that it has already received glowing reviews at his recent runs in Adelaide and Brisbane, it's likely that this is a show to watch.
