Zoë Coombs Marr (born 1984/1985[1]) is an Australian comedian, performer and actor.[2][3]

In 2014, Coombs Marr acted in Gideon Obarzanek’s L’Chaim which premiered as part of Sydney Dance Company's season Interplay.[2]

In 2016, her show Trigger Warning, in which she adopts the persona of a sexist man called "Dave",[4] received the Barry Award at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival (MICF).[5][6][7] As well as the Barry (now known as Melbourne International Comedy Festival Award), the show also won two Green Room Awards.[4]

Coombs Marr introduced her new character, "Bossy Bottom" at the Adelaide Fringe in March 2018, after she decided to leave "Dave" behind.[4] She was nominated for the Helpmann Award for Best Comedy Performer for her new show.[8][9][10] In April 2020, Amazon Prime started streaming a comedy special of "Bossy Bottom".[4]

In 2022, Coombs Marr brought back the character of "Dave", who, as revealed in her new show, The Opener, had been in a coma since 2016 and missed a lot of historic events such as the #MeToo Movement, and the Black Lives Matter movement.[11]

Coombs Marr's ABC series Queerstralia television series premiered in 2023, taking on a unique approach in presenting queer Australian history.[citation needed]
