The bit about the director of operations
Janet A. McLeod has been a fixture of the Melbourne comedy industry for twenty odd years, working both onstage and behind the scenes with equal success and enthusiasm.
With a long list of comedy credits to her name, she lovingly runs Local Laughs every Monday at The Local Taphouse in St Kilda. (Do drop by if you’re in the area).
As a performer, Janet is the popular host of weekly trivia nights around Melbourne and an in-demand host of corporate events.
She is also one half of cult comedy duo Cinema Fiasco along with internationally renowned comedy improviser Geoff Wallis (Impro Melbourne).
If you're a night owl you may have heard Janet on ABC Local Radio's Overnights With Trevor Chappell. She's on every second Tuesday at the un-godly time of 2.30am.
