"There are few Australian comic creations as enduring, absurd and joyfully unkillable as BOB DOWNE. For four decades, Mark Trevorrow’s polyester-clad alter ago has shone as the self-proclaimed 'Prince of Polyester,' blurring the line between parody and pathos in a way that’s uniquely, unmistakably Australian. 'CHOOSE BOB! 40 Ridiculous Years' at Thebarton Theatre wasn’t just a greatest hits celebration - it was a sequin-drenched, heartfelt reminder of how deeply this character has seeped into the country’s comic and cabaret DNA.”
