HE’S an Adelaide lawyer who moonlights as a comedian and his claim to fame is auditioning for Puppetry of the Penis – and failing.
“I don’t know why I missed out because I could do all the moves – the Eiffel Tower, The Loch Ness Monster, the Windsurfer,” Anthony Jucha said last week.
Now Anthony has turned his bizarre life experiences into a one-man show, What Makes A Man Bare All, from March 8 to 14 at the East End Exchange for this year’s Fringe Festival.
The show will include some video footage of Anthony’s penis puppetry audition.
“You just won’t see anything more humiliating,” he said.
Some of his other escapades include travelling 10,000km in a month to follow games during the Rugby World Cup.
Considering the rather unusual nature of some of Anthony’s stunts, it’s lucky his bosses at law firm Townsends are so open-minded.
“They gave me a round of applause when I came into the office after my Puppetry of the Penis audition,” he said.
