For nearly twenty years, Ben McKenzie has done a little of everything: sketch, improv, standup, musicals, storytelling, theater, lectures, podcasts, and even late night museum tours. Ben marries comedy and science, such as his time travel comedy audio show, Night Terrace. He’s also designed and hosted dozens of live games, such as Small Time Criminals and city-wide romp Where in Melbourne is Carmen (or Diego)? He hosts the Terry Pratchett book club podcast Pratchat. Ben says that as much as he wants a performance he’s writing to be perfect by revising it over and over, it never gets to be perfect because nothing ever is, but that doesn’t matter because once it’s done and it’s out, that’s it. Ben shares about what he enjoys doing, what it means to be in the game design and comedy industry, and the value of collaboration because one-person show is not ever really a one-person show in theater.
