George Zacharopoulos: Greek Tragedy
George moved from Greece to study biochemistry in the UK and, in doing so, avoided joining the Greek army for his national service. But instead of becoming a biochemist he became a comedian, taking the UK circuit by storm. Now he is here with his debut Melbourne show bringing tales of his immigrant life, Greek family and trying to fit in a world he believes is much stupider than he is.
Oh, and the army have issued a warrant in case he ever goes back to Greece and his Mum still tells people he is a biochemist.
