Since then, 'Puppetry Of The Penis' has gone on to become a worldwide phenomenon having been performed in over 35 countries. The show was a rousing success and before they knew it the duo were embarking on an eight-month national tour of Australia. Morley, together with fellow puppeteer David 'Friendy' Friend, debuted ‘Puppetry Of The Penis’ at the 1998 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
I would either forever be that guy that did that stupid little dick show and be pretty much unemployable for the rest of my life or we could do this in a really clever way and we could cross all language barriers and this could be the sort of thing that could travel around the world.” “It was a big step for me to do this professionally, I knew this was going to go one of either two ways. “I wasn’t really planning to be on stage, I was wanting someone else to be on stage and do the show for me but I couldn’t find anyone and everyone kept bailing out on me so I had to cross the line,” Morley says while on the phone in Wales. In the 1990s, Simon Morley had earned a reputation as one of Australia’s most prominent comedy promoters having worked with the likes of Mick Molloy and Glenn Robbins.īut in 1998 Morley was ready to put his hard-earned reputation on the line to star in a brand-new live comedy show – ‘Puppetry Of The Penis’.
