OFF THE BOAT (ENCORE!)
THEY’RE BACK! Comedy superstars Sooshi Mango are set to return to Australian stages this August and September for a special round of encore performances.
The much-loved comedy troupe, made up of Joe Salanitri, Carlo Salanitri, and Andrew Manfre, have experienced unimaginable success with their OFF THE BOAT TOUR — seeing it grow from an initial seven shows to a staggering 38 dates.
And now, due to massive demand, they have added a series of encore shows in Brisbane, Sydney, Wollongong, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth, as well as new shows in Gippsland and Ballarat!
“I mean thousands and thousands of people turned up to see us… what a rush! The spirit of comedy and laughter is still very much alive despite all the recent hardships… and to top it all off at 44 years of age I can finally afford to move out of my parents’ house.” – Andrew
In an impressive feat, they have broken the house record at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena to be the only comedy act to perform more than two shows of the same tour in the last 20 years — a very special achievement in their hometown.
“It’s still all very surreal! Selling out arena shows, and all the accolades are nothing compared to hearing thousands of people laugh, especially after what we’ve been through. Now we have another two months on the road again to bring laughter to all that missed out. Even though I miss out on Salami season! I can’t wait to do it all over again!” – Joe
“I’m so overwhelmed by how much people are enjoying this show! We put a lot of work into it to make it an experience the fans would never forget, and it feels great that it’s being received that way. Finally, I made my Italian mother proud after all those years of disappointing her!” – Carlo
