Corporate & surprise entertainment · Melbourne
The moment no one sees coming.
Opera, comedy and a surprise your guests won’t see coming. Melbourne-based Jon and Rebecca Bode perform for corporate dinners, winery events and private celebrations across Australia.
Australia's original comedy opera surprise act
Corporate entertainment in Melbourne, with a twist.
For more than twenty years, Jon and Rebecca Bode have appeared among unsuspecting guests before turning an ordinary moment into the part of the event everyone remembers. Every show is shaped around the venue, audience and occasion, then made easy to host wherever the room happens to be.
Looking for singing waiters? Our Singing Sommeliers begin as convincing wine experts before the presentation unravels into comedy and opera. We work with your organiser on the timing, the reveal and the details about your guests. For winery entertainment, the surprise can also open an advertised cabaret evening.
