Her natural warmth and wit has been a hit with audiences and critics alike ever since she won the 2014 Deadly Funny National Grand Final. Her award-winning shows always sell out and she’s a regular on mainstream television shows such as "Hughesy We Have A Problem" and "The Project."
She’s performed stand-up on Channel 10’s "Stand Up for Christchurch Benefit;" ABC TV’s "Tonightly with Tom Ballard" and "Comedy Up Late," and on radio she’s performed for Triple J and is a regular on ABC radio guest programs. She co-hosted "Triple J Breakfast" for NAIDOC week 2019 with David Woodhead and has just wrapped filming her supporting role in her first feature film “Love You Like That”. Her 2019 spot on ABC TV’s Oxfam Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala went viral and the following year she was invited to host the Gala, one of the festival’s highest status gigs.
Her debut show, "Identity Steft," won the weekly award for best emerging talent at the 2018 Adelaide Fringe and was nominated for Best Newcomer Award at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Her second show, "The Pyramid," won the 2019 Melbourne International Comedy Festival John Pinder Award.
As a proud Indigenous woman, Tisdell is also a cast member of the Aboriginal Comedy All Stars, who sold out during their festival run at Edinburgh Fringe, before heading to London’s Soho Theatre. An interest in politics and advocacy saw Tisdell first enrolling in law and this formidable intelligence and sense of social justice now permeates her material. As a Ydinji woman she loves to share her experiences and what her culture means to her, and hopes that her visibility will empower other Aboriginal artists to come forward and to showcase why they’re the funniest race in the world.
Tisdell’s material also covers the spectrum of life as a twenty-something: dating, body issues, mental health. She revels in oddball observations and ribald remarks. Authentic, relatable, hilarious with a wit as sparkly as the mischievous glint in her eyes, Tisdell is a joy to watch.
