Yes, we know you’re all breathless with Harry Potter excitement! And why wouldn’t you be? In four days, we all find out what on Earth J K Rowling has planned for “Pottermore“; next month sees the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part Two; and of course, on July 6, you can join Ben and Richard McKenzie for Dungeon Crawl and the Deathly Philosopher Prince’s Goblet of Azkaban!

Allow us to reveal the spectacular line-up for the event: actor and cabaret star Louise Joy McCrae (The Gift Horse, World War Wonderful); actor and comedian Fiona Harris (Skithouse, The Librarians); composer and cabaret genius Karin Muiznieks (World War Wonderful, Filthy Secrets); and star of ABC1′s Unbelieveable, Lawrence Leung! We’ll see you there, right?

But that’s not all; we’re also pleased to announce that Dungeon Crawl will return for an extra show in July! On Thursday, July 21, join us for Dungeon Mook, a fundraiser for Vignette Press’ new journal of original nerdy writing, Geek Mook. Watch this space for more details as the day approaches!

Busy Friends of Shaolin Punk

It’s a busy time for many of our wonderful Dungeon Crawlers and other comedy friends, and we hope you’ll check out what they’re up to!

This week in Adelaide Karin Muiznieks appears in the Cabaret Fringe Festival with a showcase of her songs from the last five years. We’ve often described Karin as a musical genius, and if you need proof, check out On Reflection at La Bohème from tonight until Saturday. And fret not if you’re in Melbourne; in July, after appearing in Dungeon Crawl and the Deathly Philosopher Prince’s Goblet of Azkaban, Karin and co-cabaret-conspirator Louise Joy McCrae have two shows in the Melbourne Cabaret Festival -World War Wonderful (fresh from its rebirth with a new cast in the Adelaide Fringe) and Filthy Secrets.

In Sydney tomorrow night, Lou Sanz begins a run of Not Suitable For Children at TAP Gallery. While Lou is yet to appear in a Shaolin Punk production, we’ve supported much of her work, including The Skirt Network and her previous solo shows; we’d recommend checking her out if you like your comedy dark and smoky.

Also tonight, wherever you are, you can tune into ABC1 for the premiere of Lawrence Leung‘s new show Unbelievable. Watch as Lawrence explores the world of psychics, aliens, magic and…well, lots of stuff we do in Dungeon Crawl, really. Tune in 9:30 PM Wednesdays for the next few weeks.

Finally (for now) you can catch Tripod – including crawlers Scott “Scod” Edgar and Steven “Gatesy” Gates – doing a regular spot in Melbourne on Sundays this month at the Toff in Town. Unfortunately the ticketing links are all for specific Sundays, but you can find ‘em via the Toff’s shows page.

Watch this space as I unveil our final line-up for Dungeon Crawl and the Deathly Philosopher Prince’s Goblet of Azkaban later this week – plus, if we’re lucky, some great news about Dungeon Crawl for those who don’t live in Melbourne…

This week’s Late Night Dungeon Crawl will be huge! Braving the ire (and fire) of the dungeon monsters are ABC1 star Lawrence Leung (Lawrence Leung Wants a Jetpack), Canadian sensation DeAnne Smith (About Freakin’ Time), the man who puts the “Scott Edgar” into Scott Edgar and the Universe and Tripod, Scott Edgar and returning from last week, Toby Halligan (Diary Leaks, Electile Dysfunction) and Dave Bloustien (Good News Week, A Complete History of Western Philosophy)! Plus of course your regular Dungeon Master Ben McKenzie, and monster-of-the-week Richard McKenzie.

While the delightful Bec Hill (Bec Hill Didn’t Want to Play Your Stupid Game Anyway) sadly won’t be able to join us, there just might be a few more special guests – and in any case, this should be the biggest Dungeon Crawl yet!

See you there at 11 PM this Wednesday, April 6, at the Bella Union.
