Barry Humphries Presents Back to My Roots and Other Suckers

About This Movie

So, this one’s a live recording from 2003 featuring the brilliant comedy of Barry Humphries. You get Dame Edna Everage's outrageous humor, Sir Les Patterson's crass charm, and Sandy Stone’s unique perspective, all under one roof at the State Theatre. The whole set is packed with that cheeky, irreverent vibe that only Humphries can pull off. The pacing really holds your attention; it’s lively and often unpredictable. The performances? Pure gold. It’s not just a show; it’s a peek into a world where satire meets heartfelt moments. They all interact with the audience which adds that spontaneous edge. A nice blend of documentary and live performance, with a distinctly Australian flavor, making it stand out in Humphries' oeuvre.
