On the Couch with Marnie Mills

Looking for a laugh that doesn’t need a dance floor? Welcome to On the Couch with Marnie Mills — where comedy meets cocktail hour in the most delightfully queer way possible.
Every month, Marnie rolls out the velvet rug for three guest comedians to drop hilarious sets and spill the tea in candid interviews. Think cozy lounge vibes meets stand-up confessionals — with extra sparkle, sass, and maybe a cocktail or three.
This ain’t your average “sit, giggle, leave” comedy night — it’s curated chaos, curated by Marnie and powered by your favorite local queer laughs.
Get ready to meet: Bahaa Dabbagh, Laura Johnston, and Georgia Poletti — just the first trio in what’s shaping up to be one of Melbourne’s most gloriously unfiltered comedy series.
Doors open at 6:30pm, show kicks off at 7:30pm. Dress how you feel — comfy, chic, or chaos-core. All vibes welcome.
Oh, and heads up — Pride of our Footscray is a beautiful venue with a staircase (two flights, to be precise). We’re working on better accessibility, but for now, bring your energy and maybe your own snack for the climb.
Follow @ms.marnie.mills for guest lineup drops each month. Spoiler: it’s going to be iconic.
