Timeline

1968

Frank Woodley ( Wood; born 29 February 1968 ) is an Australian comedian, author and musician who is best known for his work alongside Colin Lane as part of the comedic duo Lano and Woodley.

1980

The two met through theatresports in the mid-1980s and first performed together at an open mike night at the Prince Patrick Hotel in Collingwood, Victoria, in 1987 along with their friend Scott Casley, calling themselves the Found Objects.

Over the next six years, the trio performed in venues throughout Australia and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

They became semi-regulars on ABC TV's The Big Gig, a show known for boosting the careers of new comedy acts.

They also had their own commercial radio show for six months and were part of the short-lived Seven Network sketch show The Comedy Sale.

1992

In 1992, when Casley moved to Alice Springs, Woodley and Lane decided to continue as a duo, drawing their name from childhood nicknames.

As Lano and Woodley, the two adopt humorous onstage personas, with Woodley playing a "goofy innocent" who is frequently bullied by Lane's pompous, controlling character.

1993

He adopted the stage name "Frank Woodley"—drawn from a childhood nickname—when he began performing as part of the comedy duo Lano and Woodley in 1993.

1997

The Adventures of Lano and Woodley, which premiered on the ABC in 1997, was a comedy series which featured the duo living together in a fictional suburban Melbourne flat and frequently getting into trouble.

It aired for two seasons, becoming the first Australian show to be sold to the BBC and airing in 38 other countries.

Although they were offered the opportunity to make the series in England, the pair decided to remain in Australia because they did not want to live in London.

1998

Woodley played a television vet named "Frank Woodley" in the twelfth episode of the 1998 Australia television series The Games.

In 2000 he changed his name by deed poll to avoid confusion.

The duo have also released an album, Lano & Woodley Sing Songs, and a novel, Housemeeting.

Subsequent live productions have included Curtains, Glitzy, Slick, Bruiser, The Island and their 2006 farewell show, Goodbye.

In 2006, after close to 20 years of working together, Woodley and Lane decided to part ways.

Woodley stated that the split was due to a desire to pursue new challenges.

"We just got to the stage where we felt we had to make a decision", he said.

"Either we were going to spend the next 20 years doing this, this'd be our career, our lives forever. And that wouldn't have been a terrible thing. Or we could go, 'Let's have a bit more variety in our lives'."

In one final tour, the duo travelled through 37 Australian cities with their farewell show, Goodbye.

2007

2019

Directed by Kate Denborough and featuring music from Paul Mac, Possessed is the story of Louie, a lonely recluse who falls in love with, and becomes possessed by, the ghost of a 19th-century shipwreck victim.

Woodley says that the show came out of the desire to do a big solo show and his interest in doing a romantic comedy: "So I was thinking that maybe I could do a solo romantic comedy where I fell in love with myself. Although it was just a stupid joke initially, I started thinking about having a ghost possess me and then I fall in love with the ghost. I have to help free her from the curse she's under."

The show has toured both nationally and internationally, and draws inspiration from Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin, Don Adams, Peter Sellers, Jerry Lewis and Laurel and Hardy.
