Overview
Ricky Gervais' lanky offsider is here for two shows. At a commanding six-foot-seven he is sure to dominate the stage and have the crowd in stitches, as he has on The Office and Extras.
His recent UK tour was hugely successful - including ten nights at London's Hammersmith Apollo - garnering universal critical acclaim. Merchant takes the mickey out of himself when he says "most people don't realise that I was a stand-up comedian before I met Ricky Gervais and his coat-tails. Life can be lonely as a TV writer so this tour is a great opportunity for me to get out there and meet my fans. And make at least one of them my wife."
Hello Ladies promises to be a quick and witty tour of the north island, first in Auckland then in Wellington.
