Winner of Melbourne Fringe Market Ready Award (supported by RAV)

We are thrilled to announce that Wonthaggi based performer Marcus Ryan has won the 2024 Melbourne Fringe Market Ready Award for his show Eat, Pray, Walk!

Eat, Pray Walk is a critically acclaimed show about an Aussie vagabond’s gruelling 1,000+km journey across France & Spain on 2 feet – the Camino de Santiago – surviving 40 days of blisters, snorers & dodgy Wi-Fi in search of life’s answers and free wine! Multiple award-winning comedian and storyteller Marcus Ryan faced injuries, bedbugs, getting lost in scorching deserts and a political revolution. With a broken backpack, borrowed shoes & a sense of adventure, it’s an epic true tale you’ll want to hear, but glad you didn’t live!

RAV Touring Manager, Bindi Green says,

“Funny, warm and entertaining, this show had us laughing in the aisles while reflecting on our own path through life. We are thrilled that this year the award has been won by a regionally based artist and can’t wait to start cooking up touring plans that don’t involve blisters and sunburn.”
