IN OTHER NEWS:
Festival director Rowan Smith said the comedians couldn't wait to get back to Milawa.
"We did a show (at Griffith) the weekend just gone and you could see it was just a release of joy from the audience and the comedians," he said.
"We came up to Milawa in January this year because it's usually the first place we get to when we're out of lockdown."
A limited number of tickets are still available at grapesofmirth.com.au.
