Hilarity. Heels. Hot tea. Handy Hints.
2009 Fringe and Comedy Festival favourites, 'The Comediettes', bring you their second show, 'Better Living!' It's making its debut at The NZ Fringe, before appearing at the Adelaide Fringe Festival in March.
The Comediettes take a look at the things you can do to make your lives better. How about wrapping your child's head in Glad Wrap to keep it fresh? Or, for the ultimate gingerbread men, try cooking a ginger man!
'Better Living!s' contains fresh twisted stand up, epic ballads, plus handy hints and hot tea.
Featuring 2009 NZ RAW Comedy Quest Winner, and 'Best Newcomer', Sarah Harpur and the wickedly funny Jim Stanton; who are both weekly correspondents on TV3's primetime show, '@Seven'.
The Comediettes enjoyed successful seasons in the New Zealand and Dunedin Fringe festivals last year as well as the New Zealand International Comedy festival, gaining rave reviews.
