April 2018; Anthony Locascio quits his 9-5 accounting job to pursue a career in stand-up comedy, seemingly out of nowhere. It had been a long time coming.

In his Sydney Comedy Festival debut, Locascio lays out the exact sequence of events and epiphanies that led to this decision. In an honest and hilarious hour, one of Sydney's fastest rising stand-up comedians reveals how a combination of childhood anxiety, university failure and natural quirkiness have created a man incapable of living the suit and tie lifestyle.

The subject matter of these stories ranges from Lion King plot-holes to feeling awkward listening to hip-hop music, from social media grievances to issues with rugby league fandom, and everything in between.

"Gave up his wealthy future for comedy, and it's paying off" - Magic Mic Comedy
