Caringa Presents: The 2024 Inaugural International Day of Persons with Disabilities Comedy Gala🎭🀣πŸŽͺ⭐🌟
Caringa, your trusted community and disability support organisation serving the Clarence Valley and Coffs Coast areas for over 70 years, announces its first-ever Comedy Gala in celebration of the United Nations International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPwD) on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, at the historic Saraton Theatre.
This event features an outstanding lineup of acclaimed performers who bring diversity, inclusivity, and exceptional talent to the stage. Headlining artists include award-winning disability advocate and comedian Madeleine Stewart, whose recent viral content on ABC iView reached 2.7 million views, and whose documentary "Inspire Me" won Best Documentary at the Australian Independent Film Festival.
"Disability access in the comedy world is rare, that's why I created Crips and Creeps. It provides an accessible space for comedians and audiences alike where inclusion is at the heart of the show and all people can feel safe and welcome," says Stewart, who recently completed a national tour of her show "Are You Pulling My Leg?"
The gala also showcases Sydney's celebrated cabaret artist Irene Nicola, known for her "joyfully chaotic" performances and multiple award nominations, alongside neurodivergent comedian Sam Wade, whose intelligent and perceptive comedy has earned critical acclaim across Australia.

Caringa is over the moon to invite our community to share an evening of fun, frivolity and fantastic entertainment with you all.
Caringa was created by the community, for you.
International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD) is a United Nations observed day held on 3 December each year.
Caringa is proud to be a part of creating an inclusive and diverse community in Australia, and we are so excited to encourage, welcome and invite the entire Caringa Community to share this event with us!
The IDPwD program aligns with Australia’s Disability Strategy 2021-31 and aims to increase public awareness, understanding and acceptance of people with disability.
