DAD (hates) JOKES is another brilliant work by Jon Bennett, exploring the unique and sometimes surreal relationship between him and his conservative father—a man who has faced death multiple times. The show mixes Bennett's sharp wit with deeply personal reflections on family, love, and the complexities of their father-son dynamic. Through a combination of heartfelt storytelling and his signature self-deprecating humor, Bennett creates a touching tribute to the ordinary yet extraordinary life of his father.
Bennett's father, who always wished for his son to follow a traditional path and become an author like Banjo Patterson, provides the central narrative arc. However, Jon's (Author of the hit book Pretending Things are a Cock) unconventional path as a comedian becomes the backdrop for this poignant exploration of familial expectations, generational differences, and shared memories. The result is a highly engaging show that effortlessly oscillates between laughter and deeper emotional reflection.
