He had one of the highest jokes per minute at the Edinburgh fringe but how many answers per hour can Pierre Novellie get on Wax Quizzical. He is joined by two members of the brains trust (which you can now join), Central Korea Dictator Kim Jong Phil (Phil Wang) and Computer Scientist Phoenix Typer (Brynley Stent).

A celebrity sits down to do a quiz. Simple enough. Except their only lifeline is a phone call from whoever happens to be available - a Boost Juice employee, the Devil, Alexander Graham Bell, a cloud.Wax Quizzical is a fully improvised quiz show hosted by Kyran Nicholson, live from Comedy Republic in the heart of Melbourne. Each episode, a comedian attempts ten trivia questions with the help of the brains trust - Australia’s best improvisers, deep in character, completely committed, and almost entirely useless.The result is a show that somehow teaches you things while being completely unhinged.New episodes fortnightly. Live recordings at Comedy Republic, 231 Bourke St Melbourne - be in the room when it happens. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
