Anthony Locascio is one of Australia’s most exciting stand-up comedians
Since beginning stand-up in 2017, he has written and toured a new full-length show every year, with highlights including Don’t Call Me a Wog! (2022), Heart of Darkness (2023), and the critically acclaimed Pappou (2024–25). Pappou toured twice around Australia and internationally to London, New Zealand, Canada, and New York, before being filmed at a sold-out Enmore Theatre and released on YouTube in 2025. His debut special Confirmation (2020) was distributed worldwide by Comedy Dynamics on Amazon Prime and Apple TV.
Anthony has sold out seasons at Sydney Comedy Festival, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Adelaide Fringe, Perth Comedy Festival, and Brisbane Comedy Festival, and was hand- picked for the prestigious Sydney and Perth Comedy Festival Gala showcases in 2021 and 2022.
Alongside his live work, he has appeared on Triple J’s Hack, SBS Sport, beIN Sports, Today EXTRA on Channel 9 and Sunrise on Channel 7, and performed or hosted major events including the Greek Festival of Sydney and the Italian National Ball. In 2025, he also curated and hosted the inaugural Greek Australian Comedy Gala and the Italian Australian Comedy Gala.
Self-managed from the start of his career, Anthony has built a loyal following online and on stage, working across comedy clubs, community festivals, corporate events, and screen projects for brands such as Nando’s, NexGard, and Pedestrian TV. His mission is to challenge clichés around “wog comedy,” representing his Greek and Italian heritage with a modern, nuanced voice that resonates far beyond those communities.
