Austin Harrison Old Mate is the latest offering from the iconic Josh Thomson. You probably recognise Thomson from The Office Australia, Taskmaster NZ, The Project or, most memorably for me personally, for his extended rants about insignificant subject matter on 7 Days. This is my first time seeing him live, and I am surprised in all the right ways with what I find.
Austin Harrison WOW, You’ve Changed is a double-bill stand-up comedy show by two of Wellington’s newer but most active comedians, Katy Burrows and Indie Vine. The concept is utterly charming. Two people don’t see each other for 10 years, and become friends. In the intervening decade one survived drug addiction and the other came out and transitioned. The show celebrates their journeys apart as they find themselves back together...making comedy.
Isaac Andrews Ivan Aristeguieta is a Venezuelan comedian, who in 2012 immigrated to Australia and has since built a stand-up career taking on the challenge of performing in a second language. On this freezing cold Tuesday night, I’m welcomed in by the warmth of the Fringe bar, to his new show tonight: Ivan Aristeguieta - Too Easy.
Austin Harrison It’s a sold out Wednesday night in Te Auaha’s Tapere Nui for one of Aotearoa’s most well-known comedians. Famous for his snapchat filter videos featuring quirky characters and tongue-in-cheek political impressions, there is a noticeable excitement in the crowd to see the dude off instagram, live in the flesh.
