Comedy night Gear Homestead 24th August 6.30pm for 7.30 start
Laugh Like a Lord or Lady
Five top Wellington comedians are amping to inflict you with a good belly-laugh on Friday August 24th at Porirua's beautiful Gear Homestead.
Mana College teacher Gabby Anderson won this year's Raw Comedy Quest 2018 best new New Zealand Comedian award. Peter Lambert, a.k.a. Patch, was one of five nominees for the Billy T. Award in 2017. Jim is a top Wellington comedian who learned her craft alongside premier comics Dai Henwood, Steve Wrigley and Ben Hurley.
Event organiser, and self-confessed 'old man of comedy' Greg Ellis, who will be busting out improv with Richard Falkner, says this is a chance to enjoy a great comedy line-up for a good cause.
Money raised will help fund Titahi Bay Intermediate's September school camp. Doors open at 6.30pm and the event starts at 7.30pm.
Tickets ($30 which includes meat or vegetarian nachos) are available by emailing tbissg@gmail.com or from Titahi Bay Intermediate weekdays 8.30am-3.30pm.
