George Rigden: Self-Inflicted

This event is part of the 2026 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

In 2020, George Rigden was roundly (and rightly) cancelled, and his life fell apart. In 2025, he was finally diagnosed with autism, finally sobered up – and began to put his life back together.

Now, more than half a decade on from his life falling apart, he’s finally stable (and sober) enough to talk about it.

An interactive musical comedy show about attempted redemption, coming to understand yourself & self-improvement, while also staying true to yourself.

A hilarious, heart-wrenching musical romp through the life of someone who’s been to hell and back through their own self-destructive tendencies, and lived to tell the tale. (Its funnier than it sounds. A lot funnier.)
