MEDIA RELEASE: For Immediate Release 14 March 2011
Jarred Christmas Stands Up
One Of New Zealands Funniest Exports Back Home For 2011
After wowing audiences with his 7 Days and Comedy Gala performances in 2010, Jarred Christmas returns home...again.
If you’re into tightly crafted jokes, a flawless ability to improvise and comedy that sizzles with originality, then
this is your man.
Full of passion and charisma, Jarred takes the audience on an hilarious thrill ride of laughs and gasps with an edge of
good humoured anger that manifests itself in his incredible rants against the small things in our lives. Jarred is now a
familiar face on British TV following a starring role in a BBC2 sitcom, with some storming appearances on hit UK panel
shows “Mock the Week” and “8 out of 10 Cats”.
He has performed at the Just for Laughs festival in Montreal with none other than Steve Martin, and has also won the
UK’s prestigious 2010 Chortle Best Compere.
“Christmas is robustly funny, his delivery confident and his show not to be missed.”
