England's 'Manchester Comedy Festival' by The Manchester Evening News, featured on Australian TV’s 'The Comedy Channel',

the last 11 years straight.
After becoming the first ever Wellington based winner of NZ's national 'Raw Comedy' Quest' and appearing in 4 series of
TVNZ's original stand-up series 'Pulp Comedy', Sully O'Sullivan did something that was then unthinkable for a Kiwi
comic, he broke the international circuit, and simply never came back.
Since then he's gigged in the USA, Ireland, Spain, Romania, Belgium, Scandinavia, the UAE and the Sultanate of Oman.
He's hosted 3 comedy tours of Croatia, graced the stage with the late, great, Robin Williams, hardcore wrestling legend
Mick Foley, and supported cult heavy metal comic Steve Hughes on 2 UK national tours spanning over 100 shows.
Come and see why Manchester based stand-up Sully O'Sullivan might just be the most successful New Zealand comic you've
never heard of.
