Three More Dates for Three Incredible Shows

The 2011 NZ International Comedy Festival

Three More Dates for Three Incredible Shows

You may have already found out that the first week of this year’s NZ International Comedy Festival has been an incredible success, with the opening weekend alone setting the pace for the Festival.

It comes with great pride to announce that three shows at this year’s Festival have added additional dates due to sheer public demand!
Ben Hurley, star of 7Days and last year’s Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards presenter has added an extra date; his grunge-titled Do The Evolution (indeed, it is a Pearl Jam reference) has an encore performance now on Saturday 14th May, 5pm at The Classic, 321 Queen Street.

The older and younger generation of new New Zealand comedians, John Carr and Tom Furniss, who have been immensely popular in this opening week of the Festival, have now added a 5:30pm date on the last day of their show, Saturday 7th May at Brooklyn Bar, 57 Lorne Street, CBD.

And two of the elder statesmen of New Zealand comedy “sit down” for your comedic pleasure. Jeremy Corbett and Paul Ego’s “Lay-Z-Men” add a 10:00pm performance to their season – taking place on the last day of their season in Auckland on Saturday 21st May, at The Herald Theatre, Aotea Centre, THE EDGE®

This is merely the tip of the iceberg in terms of additional dates – so visit www.comedyfestival.co.nz regularly or join us on Facebook to keep up-to-date with more dates, what’s selling fast and everything else NZ International Comedy Festival 2011 related.
