You might be familiar with names like Celia Pacquola, Matt Okine, Hannah Gadsby and Ronny Chieng.

They are major players in the comedy scene and just some of the talent fostered in programs created by comedy trailblazer Susan Provan.

Susan has been at the helm of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival since the mid nineties and has seen it grow into one of the world's largest comedy events.
