Lawrence Mooney

Award-winning comedian and host

The owner of one of the funniest, most comically creative minds in the business, stand-up comedian Lawrence Mooney can be heard on Triple M Sydney’s breakfast radio show Moonman in the Morning.

Also an actor, writer and radio and television personality, Lawrence became familiar to ABC1 audiences through his brutal honesty and sage advice on the The Agony of Life TV series as well as featuring on It’s a Date. Lawrence also co- wrote episodes of It’s a Date for the first and second series. Lawrence hosted 3 seasons of the hilarious Dirty Laundry Live on ABC. In 2019 he was hand-picked to host a new comedy-driven footy show, Up The Guts, on Fox Sports following on from Friday Night Footy. He’s also a regular on Fox Sports’ The Beep Test

Lawrence is one of this country’s most celebrated stand-up comedians and has shared his unique view of the human condition from behind a microphone for more than 20 years.

He is now at the top of his game. He was nominated for The Barry Award at The Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2015 and winner of Best Show at The Sydney Comedy Festival 2015. Previously, his hilarious insights earned him Best National Act 2013 at the Perth Comedy Festival and Best Comedy Act 2011 at the Melbourne Fringe Festival. In 2007, he made it to the semi-final in America on NBC’s Last Comic Standing.

In 2015, Lawrence’s tour of Surely Not, a comedic rumination on all things familial prompted by the demise of a relative back in the UK, consistently sold out and received rave reviews. Lawrence had a sell-out season at the Sydney Opera House performing his unique and popular show An Evening with Malcolm Turnbull in 2019

Lawrence Mooney is known for his friendly and convivial style of banter and has a very polished performance style. Incredibly engaging and totally at home on the stage, Lawrence guarantees audiences a night full of laughs – and perhaps even a few tears.
