This event is part of the 2026 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
In the past year Aves Robins has been under the knife, read way too much obscure Catholic history and somehow transformed into a goth jellyfish.
Her friends and family are bewildered and concerned.
And she has but one opportunity to convince them it’s all going to be okay.
Spite and Other Delights is a love letter to the absurd. It’s comedy that can only be performed by someone who is not afraid of the dark.
At least not as much as overhead lighting.

Underground Comedy is an independent pop-up venue at the Queen Victoria Women’s Centre for MICF 2026. The program of shows at Underground Comedy promises to honour the legacy that QVWC has created over the years with their involvement with MICF. Supporting women, femme, trans and gender diverse artists and their allies.
It is an intimate 30 seat space that fills a gap in the independent venue scene. The slate of shows includes the return of the much beloved comedy trio ‘Watson’ and a hand picked selection of local, interstate and international comedians.
