Laugh out loud

THERE'LL be belly laughs galore at the NSW Seniors Festival Comedy Show where some of the country's top comedians will tackle the big questions.... Is 60 the new 40? Do grandparents do it better? Is retirement harder than going to work every day?

Handing out the laughs will be Gary Elk, Tommy Dean, Peter Berner, Chris Radburn, Peter Meisel and James Smith - under the watchful eye and sharp tongue of Jean Kittson.

Comedy cabaret group Lady Sings it Better will provide musical relief with quirky takes on songs popularised by male artists.

The NSW Seniors Festival runs from April 4-15. For a full program of events, go to seniorsfestival.nsw.gov.au
