Paul F. Tompkins is a well-dressed dandy of a comedian.
Paul F. Tompkins is a well-dressed dandy of a comedian. He is NOT a fop. Fops keep lacy handkerchiefs tucked into their sleeves and paint beauty marks on their cheeks. Paul’s sleeves contain only shirt and arm and all of his beauty marks are 100% natural.
For his first visit to Australia, he’ll recount his journey from standing before retail counters to standing in front of movie cameras, from selling hats to acting opposite Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood. All this in pursuit of his ultimate goal – not getting yelled at.
Paul F. Tompkins performs Life’s Work at Melbourne Town Hall’s Powder Room from March 31 – April 17. It’s at 8.30pm Tuesday – Saturday and 7.30pm on Sundays. Tickets are $23.50 – $31 and available through Ticketmaster, 1300 660 013 and at the door.
