Olympic breaker Rachael Gunn, better known as Raygun, has defended a decision to issue legal threats that forced a comedian to cancel her show inspired by Gunn.
Australian comedian Steph Broadbridge was due to debut Raygun: The Musical at Kinselas in Sydney’s Darlinghurst last Saturday evening before performances scheduled for 2025 at comedy festivals in Sydney, Melbourne and Edinburgh.
She canned it after Gunn’s lawyers sent several letters to the show’s promoter, iD Comedy Club, asking it to cancel the show and not use the name “Raygun” or the Olympian’s now famous “kangaroo dance”, as both were Gunn’s intellectual property.
In a video posted to Instagram on Friday afternoon, Gunn explains her decision to shut down the musical inspired by her Olympic journey.
