Oh, you thought the Comedy Festival was over? Joke's on you, it's never over! Johanna rounds up a best of the fest, ft. Chris Parker's Camp Binch, Tom Sainsbury's Giggly Gerties, and an incredible K-pop dance routine courtesy of Rose Matafeo.
Johanna runs down her top Comedy Festival picks of the week w/ special guest Hayley Sproull and ft. collab calls, Best Foods mayo, and the kind of comedy that makes you might just make you cry. Happy tears or sad, you ask? Only time will tell.
Johanna and Bel have brought Aussie comedienne Tessa Waters in - and, believe it or not, Mikey can barely get a word in! Comedy Fest, God bless you always.
Goodbye old theatre guide, hello Aunty! Johanna Cosgrove's in the studio with an all new rendition of Stage Direction ft. top picks from the upcoming NZ International Comedy Festival and a chat with marketing manager Bel Hawkins. TGIF.
Grand Opening, a show presented by Wellington's Barbarian Productions and part of Auckland Live's Summer in the Square programme, takes a look behind the curtains of the Mighty Civic to reveal the histories and hidden corners that Joe Public mightn't otherwise get to see. Barbarian's Jo Randerson talks to Kate (okay, and a very excited Mike) about choirs, DKD coffee and general all-round mischief. Get your tickets for the limited showings HERE.
On today's segment: Kate is joined, among the hustle and bustle of 95bFM Breakfast Club madness, by Auckland Fringe Festival Director Lydia Zanetti. With the Fringe programme launching later today, Lydia gives us an exclusive sneak peek of what's in store for lucky punters. Also a noted producer, Lydia shares a little goss about the recent Zanetti Productions produced Auckland Theatre Awards. ...Who did _what_ to Prime Minister Ardern?!?
