COMEDY FOR CHRISTCHURCH, The Court Jesters' fundraiser staged on March 9 at the Theatre Royal Nelson, raised over $7,000 for the Salvation Army's earthquake relief efforts. A completely sold out show (with additional seats added to cope with demand), as well as additional donations on the night, meant that $7,193 will go towards ongoing counselling and assistance for those affected by the Christchurch earthquake.

The Jesters were delighted to perform together again (many of them reunited for the first time since February 22) and are incredibly grateful to the people of Nelson for their support.
