Stand-up comedy show Lost for Words by Kirsty Webeck, billed as Australia's champion of cheerful comedy.
Kirsty Webeck brings her show Lost for Words to the Newcastle Comedy Club on Saturday 17 October. It's a solo stand-up set, so it's just her on stage for the night.
Webeck is billed as Australia's champion of cheerful comedy, and the description of Lost for Words fits that: smart, warm and genuinely funny without being mean-spirited or cynical. She's a storyteller at heart, so the show is built around her taking the mic and working her way through the material rather than relying on quick-fire gags. It's the kind of comedy that lets the stories breathe, and it's a good fit for a room like the Comedy Club.
She's no stranger to a big run, either. This comes after a huge 2025 Australian tour, and she's since returned to the stage. You might recognise her from The Oxfam Gala or Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont-Spelling Bee, and she's been heard on ABC Radio's Thank God It's Friday with Charlie Pickering. Between the touring and the guest spots, she's spent plenty of time in front of an audience, so Lost for Words is a polished piece of work.
