Sooshi in Sydney

Hugely popular social media icons, Sooshi Mango met with fans in Sydney recently to promote their expanded beverage offering and host a Sydney Comedy Festival Gala at the Sydney Opera House.

Touring a popular liquor store chain to promote their expanded range of licensed liquor products, Sooshi Mango aka brothers Joe and Carlo Salanitri with friend Andrew Manfre have been meeting fans who have lined up en masse to catch a glimpse and get a photo with the new heroes of Australian ethno-comedy.

Sooshi Mango gained enormous popularity performing comical vignettes lambasting their family members on social media. Gaining a huge audience, Italians and ethnic communities alike relate to the characters created by the boys that often emulate their own parents or Nonni.

Having sold out shows on their own merit, they’ve been invited by Sydney Comedy Festival organisers to host an event at the Sydney Opera House featuring fellow comics Mary Coustas, Nikki Osbourne, Troy Kinne and others.

Speaking exclusively to ‘Allora’ the boys, who have not long returned from a successful tour of Dubai, have given the scoop on a new film in the works. After extremely well received appearances in Nick Giannopolous’ ‘Wogboys Forever’, the boys are now working on their own vehicle predicated for a 2025 release date.

Carlo gave us an insight into what it takes to produce a film from scratch saying that “It takes a long time, because you’ve got to have the idea for it then you’ve got to write it and shoot it and all that sort of thing”. Soosh Mango and friends appear at the Sydney Opera House on November 13th.
