‘STILL HERE by Dave & the Daves’ is more than a play; it’s a 60-minute lifeline on stage that champions mental health through laughter, music, and the art of storytelling. A bit of slapstick, a healthy dose of stand-up, and a few raw truths about navigating life with depression, ‘Still Here’ is an intoxicating blend of uproarious laughter and heartfelt empathy. Against the background of a society where depression and suicide statistics are alarmingly high – over 9 lives are lost to suicide daily in Australia – steps Dave Houston, mixing up a hilarious brew of clowning, razor-sharp character comedy and live songs from punk to hip-hop to pysched up folk rock.

‘Still Here’ will introduce you to a colourful tapestry of characters, from the showbiz master Uncle David to the charismatic hip-hop sensation Rave Dave. Meet the ever-bumbling Davo, a work-for-the-dole roadie (and let’s not forget Byron Bay life coach Darvid Uluru Crystal, stoner Davology, and street busker Davidae).
