Bushranger, revolutionary, cop-killer, republican. Australia's famous folk criminal was a prolific writer and raconteur in the 1800’s. His impromptu performance in Jerilderie, where he dared the audience to shoot him dead on the spot, was legendary. In 2011 he returns - and cracks the funny about the state of this enigmatic nation. Includes folk songs and a big beard.

Critically acclaimed satirist, and creator of ‘Collingwood ruined my Life’ and ‘Ben Cousins – a rock opera’, Kieran Butler, presents Ned Kelly as a take-no-prisoners, stand-up comic.

‘Ned Kelly – Last Stand Up’ features a cameo appearance by Sean Kelly (ex-TISM), as Joe Byrne and Redmond Barry, plus support act, Andrew Bolt-Action.

"Thoroughly funny... hilarious" - West Australian
"Wild laughs... Butler's kick is formidable" - The Age
"Damn good" - Edinburgh Evening News
