AotearoHA: Next Big Things

COMEDY: THE NEXT GENERATION

NEW ZEALAND COMEDY TRUST PRESENTS
AOTEAROHA: NEXT BIG THINGS
HOSTED BY BEN HURLEY


Are you the kind of person that needs to be ‘in the know’? Then don’t miss AotearoHA: Next Big Things – so you can proudly say “I knew them first!” when these up-and-coming comedy talents hit the big time. 7 Days star and already big deal Ben Hurley picks the ones to watch from the current local comedy circuit and hosts them on the big stage at Q Theatre on Saturday 27th April.

The huge success of the previous AotearoHA: Next Big Things on TV3 prompted the Comedy Festival and Hurley to make their picks for 2013 & showcase the hot new talent you may not have heard of yet, but who’ll be on everyone’s radar soon enough.

AotearoHA: Next Big Things has previously served as a platform for the likes of 7 Days regular Urzila Carlson, Guy Williams (Billy T Award winner 2012) and Rose Matafeo (Billy T Award nominee 2013) – all of which have gone on to critical acclaim and, more importantly, rapturous laughter within the NZ comedy circuit.

2013’s edition features a fantastic selection of break-through talent, including Nick Rado (2011 Billy T Award nominee), Brendon Green (Best Newcomer, 2012 NZ International Comedy Festival), 2012 RAW Comedy Quest winner Jamaine Ross and many more to be announced ahead of the Festival!

An evening guaranteed to have you in hysterics with spotlight-shining shenanigans for the soon to be cream of NZ’s comedy crop; be there or be square!
