Phillip Scott: The End of the Wharf as We Know It

Phillip Scott has joyfully been puncturing the inflated egos of this country’s elite for four decades. He does it all – a writer, composer, actor, singer, and musician – skills which come together for satirical comedy shows beginning in the early 1980s with The Gillies Report, morphing into their current guise as The Wharf Revue for the past 25 years. All good things must come to an end, and he and his fellow satirists are presenting their final iteration of the show – The End of the Wharf as We Know It. Phillip also has a connection with 2MBS Fine Music Sydney. As the first Director of Programming back in 1975, Phillip shares some of the stories of the chaotic early days of the station, as it approaches its 50th anniversary. We also find out how his professional life has been shaped and get a peek into how his acclaimed shows come together. There are some guest appearances from a couple of his well known characters, too! The End of the Wharf as We Know It runs at The Seymour Centre until 23 December, and tours regionally during 2025.
