She's toured Australia with Melbourne International Comedy Festival Roadshow, appeared on the Opening Night Comedy Allstars Supershow in 2021, 2022 and 2023 and The Oxfam Gala in 2024, performed on the Sydney and Perth Comedy Festival opening night galas and hosted the comedy stage at The Falls Festival in Byron Bay.

Her first stand up comedy special 'Silver Linings' was released on Paramount Plus in November 2022.

Kirsty's experienced her fair share of grief and loss over the last few years - including the shock death of her dear friend and comedy mentor Cal Wilson. She brings her beautiful heart and joyous, effusive nature to planning her Dream Funeral with us today.

What is Marieke Hardy Is Going To Die?

Hello, my name is Marieke Hardy and I’m Going To Die. But that’s ok, because so are you. And so is everybody you know, including - and trust me, I’m as conflicted about this as you are - your dog. It’s confronting, especially in the brutal world we’re all doing our best to survive, but I believe there’s something important about this universal experience we’re all having together that worth interrogating. Join me as I speak to a variety of interesting, beautiful, imperfect humans (who are definitely going to die) and help them plan their dream funerals as they reflect on their lives, their longings, and how best to navigate this intense ride.
