Our second-last show of the year—get your mates sorted and your tickets booked.

Barefaced Stories. Perth Festival. ABC Radio Perth.
Two respectable institutions and us.
Introducing OFF AIR. 🎙️
You know their voices. But you haven’t heard these stories. We’re getting some of Perth’s favourite ABC on-air experts out of the studio and onto the stage. These are stories that definitely weren’t getting past the producer.
And in true Barefaced Stories-style there are no notes, no safety net and definitely no seven-second delay.
Hosted by Saturday Breakfast’s Amber Cunningham, this is one night of true stories with nowhere to hide.
🎙️ OFF AIR | Perth Festival 2027
📍 Octagon Theatre, UWA
📅 Saturday 13 February, 7pm
🎟️ $39–$49 | Tickets via kink in bio
Line-up reveal to drop soon. For now, book yourself a seat. We’ve got some loose lips to organise.

TONIGHT. WE’RE IN DEEP. 🛟
Ever thought, “Yep, I can handle this,” with absolutely no evidence to support that claim?
Tonight, six storytellers confess what happened when they got properly out of their depth. There’s a stuck lift, a fire party, Burning Man Fight Night… and you, sitting comfortably with a drink, judging everyone’s decisions.
Come laugh, gasp and feel considerably better about your own life choices.

This is Mac. A flight attendant who was scared of flying.
Here he is in a kilt, reminding us that you can never guess someone’s story just by looking at them.

When you meet Meryl Streep and your stomach forgets how to behave. 😳
Chloe Donaldson told us about meeting MERYL BLOODY STREEP. We’d need a little lie-down just making eye contact.
That’s the joy of Barefaced. Someone steps up to the mic and suddenly you’re thinking, “Hang on. You met WHO?” 👀🐻

You’d think after sixteen years Mama Bear would’ve heard it all.
Apparently bloody not. 😂🐻
Here’s @andreagibbs losing it at the side of the stage. A microphone, a true story and someone saying the thing you NEVER saw coming. Still gets her.

Third-last show of the year. Take the hint. Book the tickets.
There’s no typical Barefaced storyteller. Thank god for that. 🐻
Take past storyteller Tim Darby: degrees in Fine Arts and Recreation, a wrought iron sculptor with passions for sand sculpture and music. Loves a hat.
Meanwhile, some of us count putting the bins out as an extracurricular activity.
Our stage welcomes all sorts. Different jobs, different backgrounds, wildly different lives. Give them a microphone and you discover something you’d never have thought to ask.

FINAL TICKETS for THE DEEP END are up for grabs, and “interested” on Facebook won’t get your arse a seat. Message your mate. Book the bloody tickets. Save the lying face-down regret for someone else.

Look at it. Sitting there like it hasn’t caused an entire room to gasp, cry and snort beer through their noses. 🎤
One microphone. Absolutely no discretion.
This Thursday 29 October, six storytellers step up for THE DEEP END. All true. No notes. The sort of stories that make “How was your week?” feel wildly inadequate.

We love Dan. We love his coffee. We LOVE his stories. ☕🐻
Dan from Bossman delivers behind the counter AND behind the microphone. Some people are just showing off.
These pics take us back to his turn on the Barefaced stage. A very good reminder that the person making your flat white might have a story that’ll knock you flat.

Third-last show of the year. Get your mates caffeinated and organised.
“What do you mean we’ve been doing monthly shows for SIXTEEN YEARS?” 🐻😳
Since 2010, baby. The year Instagram launched and the very first iPad arrived. Choosing a movie still involved a trip to the video shop.
Farrrrk. That’s a lot of people spilling their guts.
Sixteen years of great stories, big laughs and strangers making us feel a little less alone. Mama Bear’s face says she’s still processing the maths.
Next up: THE DEEP END. Come see why we keep coming back for more.

Good mates. Bad influences. Excellent taste in nights out. 😂🐻
A little throwback to these best buds absolutely losing it at The Bird.
Sixteen years of Barefaced and we still reckon laughing yourself stupid next to your favourite person is a pretty bloody good way to spend a Thursday.
Tag your partner in poor judgement. You’ve got plans.

Luna Cinema. Choc bombs. Rockstars.
Cody Cameron Brown’s story had ALL the ingredients. 🍦🎸👀
One of our favourites—and a reminder that little old Perth has some very big stories. You think you know this city, then someone gets behind our microphone.

Back to The Bird, where this whole beautiful carry-on began in 2010. 🐻❤️
A microphone, some brave souls and a room full of people discovering that strangers have EXCELLENT stories.

THE DEEP END is our third-last show of the year, and “I meant to get tickets” is a very boring story.

LOOK AT YOU LOT. 😂❤️

Some people start a story and you immediately settle in. Cheyne Pearce is one of them. 🐻❤️
A little throwback to Cheyne at The Bird, doing what he does brilliantly: telling a bloody good story.
We’d happily have him back behind the microphone. Keep an eye out—we hope it’s soon! 👀
In the meantime, your next Barefaced fix is THE DEEP END.

A little love for Ofa Fotu and her wonderfully cheeky stories. ❤️
These photos are from a past Music Edition. What a voice. What a storyteller. We’d love to see her behind our microphone again someday.
Our Music Edition returns on 17 December, and this year’s line-up is still to be revealed. Before we get festive, though, we’ve got TWO nights of Barefaced goodness for you. 🐻
