Let’s get together online and harness the power of laughter to raise vital funds to help improve the lives of individuals and families impacted by this rare and devastating disease, Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC).

This will be a fun night featuring some fantastic comedians with great prizes to be won. Prizes up for grabs include a Vuly Trampoline, original artworks by renowned Australian artists, beachside accommodation, wine and so much more!

We hope you will choose to support our VIRTUAL Comedy for a Cure and encourage others to come along too. Please invite your family, friends and colleagues to join the fun too.  

Your support will help TSA ensure children and adults living with TSC across Australia have access to ground-breaking new treatments and research that are taking us closer to a cure for this devastating disease.
