Mooney’s gone country. Deep country. Dead Set Country. He likes the word country because it’s got a rude word in it if you EMPHasise it properly.
Dead Set Country is Lawrence’s brand new hit show that’s all about a city boy gone bush. Roughed up by locals, mourning dead wombats, talking with horses and having an abiding affair with a tractor - in short Mooney is Dead Set Country.
Following on from the acclaim for his past three shows Beauty, Embracing Your Limitations and Pigeonhole he’s back with Dead Set Country. This time he’s covered in dust, speaking slower and line dancing.
It’s Clarkson’s Farm meets Lawrence Mooney’s head on collision with country Australia. “You’re not from round here are ya mister?”
Lawrence Mooney is an acclaimed stand-up comedian who across a thirty-year career has been regarded by critics and fans as properly hilarious whether appearing as himself, one of his many characters, live or on the tele. Lawrence has toured the country with his best mates in the hit show The Comedians and can be seen regularly on The Front Bar on Seven and The Back Page on Fox Sports.
