After starring in UK feature film 'The Flirting Club,' Richard Di Gregorio bursts back onto the Australian stage with this hilarious one-man variety show. Fresh from a very successful season at the Melbourne Fringe 2011, Richard is now thrilled to bring 'Richard Di Gregorio: On Time' to an Adelaide audience. He explores our relationship with time and what happens when Mr 20-Something wakes one day to find he's 34. A mix of storytelling, music, stand-up and even a short sitcom, the show is intelligent, fast-paced comedy and theatre. How do we perceive time? Does it sometimes trick us? And how many shopping days left until Christmas? After winning their way into Melbourne_x0019_ s 2010 Short & Sweet Gala, Richard Di Gregorio and Keith Gow team up again as actor and writer to explore these questions and more. Gow's script deftly weaves Di Gregorio's personal _x0013_ sometimes VERY personal _x0013_ stories with reflections on the nature of time itself. Di Gregorio is a man of many talents. A natural storyteller, he also sings, raps and plays guitar during the show, and has even had a feature film script optioned (co-written with director Chris Broadstock). He also stars in the short sitcom _x0018_ Time and Space_x0019_ which the audience is treated to halfway through _x0018_ Richard Di Gregorio: On Time._x0019_ Ever wondered what Time and Space would look like as sitcom characters? Or what actually happened that infamous night Richard met Billy Crystal? Wonder no more! Di Gregorio_x0019_ s charm and energy tie together the entire performance and carry the audience effortlessly through this sparkling hour-long variety show. "[Richard's] storytelling style and dramatisation allowed the show to be meaningful and somewhat philosophical amongst the jokes." - Chris Dewberry, Comedy Beast Magazine
