Nick Abrahams - The Accidental Lawyer

Nick Abrahams - The Accidental Lawyer With sold out runs in London and at the 2026 Melbourne and Sydney Comedy Festivals,The Accidental Lawyer is a fast-paced stand-up show from former Warner Bros.
studio executive Nick Abrahams.
Nick worked in Los Angeles on the hit TV shows ER and The West Wing, and produced and appeared in a film with Woody Allen.
He then turned his back on fame, fortune and genuine insincerity to return to Australia to be a … lawyer.
What?
In the show, Nick pulls back the curtain on what Hollywood taught him about life, love and plastic surgery - along with the deeply unsettling discovery that many of the most successful people in the world also appear to have absolutely no idea what they are doing.
Audiences love the Hollywood stories, including his awkward encounters with stars like Woody Allen, Gene Simmons (KISS), Minnie Driver, Kate Hudson, Tara Reid and Bill Withers.
For lawyers and non-lawyers alike, the show explores the eternal career dilemma: chase your passion, or chase the mortgage repayments?
It takes aim at the comforting illusion that careers follow some grand strategic plan.
The reality is that most careers are a chaotic mix of luck, accidents and at least one poor decision that your parents still bring up at family events.
Plus Nick tackles one of the biggest questions of our time: how to stop the robots from taking your job.
The show is 100% clean, guaranteed to make you laugh and feel better about the world.
Nick's own career path has been anything but conventional.
He was a successful stand-up comedian in Tokyo, hosted his own television show and was billed as "the Seinfeld of Japan" before attending the University of Southern California Film School, working at Warner Bros.
and ultimately returning to Australia to pursue the glamour and excitement of legal practice.
