There's just no explaining certain phenomena. Why do galaxies not fall apart under the weight of dark matter? Why is A Current Affair still on television? And why, more to the point, is dear Nelly Thomas not an enormous star?

With the moxie of a babe who cut her teeth doing RSL floor shows and the “edge” of an “alternative comedian, Thomas is a beguiling fusion of old with new. Much, much more importantly, she's really very funny.

Shout this best kept secret of the Melbourne comedy circuit to your mates. And, shout at Thomas, too. She's a specialist with hecklers and will almost certainly give back much better than you have given.
