    AotearoHA: Next Big Thing

    Fri, 28 Oct, 2011

    SkyCity Theatre, Auckland

    You can get the same exercise benefits from laughing 100 times a day as you can from ten minutes of rowing. In which case the organisers of AotearoHA: Next Big Thing really have our best interests at heart. Skycity Theatre will open its voluptuous stage area to a handful of comics – the best new talent (as decided by the producers of the NZ International Comedy Festival) to tickle you inappropriately. Leading the gaggle (which is what I’ve decided a group of comedians is called, because of “gag” and “giggle”) will be the ubiquitous Ben Hurley, introducing the lineup of Guy Williams, Urzila Carlson and relative newcomer Mo Kheir. Concrete Playground has a Double Pass to giveaway to AotearoHA. Tell us your funniest (or not so funniest) joke to go in the draw.
