About the show
Cobra Kai: The Way of the Comic is a stand-up storytelling show by Dan Willis, presented through PBH's Free Fringe at the Back Cave. Inspired by a comedy-drama series based upon a feel-good movie from 1984, Willis delivers laughs, fun and — most importantly — an in-depth guide on how to place wax onto a car, then effectively remove it. The show follows a series of previous works including The Walking Dead, Ferris Bueller's Way Of... and The Whinging Pom's Guide To Australia. It runs for 60 minutes, is free to attend and is suitable for ages 18 and above.
Why see this show?
A warmly funny deep-dive into one comedian's genuine obsession with a beloved TV series. Unpretentious, accessible and free — an hour in the company of someone who clearly loves the show as much as his audience does.
