Laser Kiwi

Overview

Is there anything New Zealand humour can't turn to gold? As Laser Kiwi, brothers Degge and Zane Jarvie, alongside Imogen Stone, bring NZ's signature low-key dorkiness into a circus arena.

Laser Kiwi has described its performance as circus sketch. Between the ten-minute pieces that the trio has rehearsed for weeks comes a flurry of miniature gags — a few of which shine among a barrage of deliberate (and very funny) failures.

From a stilt-walk sabotaged by excessive props to a stunt cruelly hampered by an outsized M&M, Laser Kiwi simultaneously reinvigorates its art form while poking gentle fun at it. That said, there's no question of the skill on display here, as its liberal deployment of charm amplifies some seriously intense and beautiful feats.

Laser Kiwi's show will run from Tuesday, July 16 to Saturday, July 20 as part of Bondi Feast 2019. For more information and to purchase tickets, head this way.
