Rowan Thambar: Sorry For The Late Reply

  • Free
  • Comedy

After witnessing his neighbour throw dog poo at a stranger in the park, comedian Rowan Thambar faced an unexpected moral (and legal) dilemma.

Sorry For The Late Reply is a sharp, story-driven comedy show about avoidance, neighbourly conflict and Fatman Scoop.

A former writer for The Project, this acclaimed hour blends big laughs with surprising heart and the awkward reality of doing the right thing in a messy world.
