Vigilantelope create innovative narrative comedy with a focus on storytelling, characterisation, music and physicality. In their work, Joel Tito, Vachel Spirason, Pat Miller, Tim McDonald and Stephanie Brotchie forge their own unique brand of comic storytelling that is smart, compelling, fast-paced and pretty funny.
This new independent comedy company burst onto the festival scene in 2009 with their debut work ‘Tale of the Golden Lease’. The show sold out at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, was nominated for a Golden Gibbo Award for Best Independent Production and was named one of The Pun’s Top 5 not-just-stand up shows of 2009.
Vigilantelope have garnered critical acclaim for their narrative style & a great deal of attention as an emerging force in Australian comedy.
“It is hard to avoid the feeling that, watching this performance, you are witnessing the birth of a new generation of comedic actors.” (
The Pun, 2009)
