Alice Fraser - A Passion For Passion

A Comedy Show About Writing A Book About Romance

Alice Fraser has fallen in love… with romance novels. She’s written a delirious love letter to the genre and now she has to live with the consequences.

If you love romance novels, or if you have no idea how anyone could love romance novels, this is the show for you.

A show that will make you laugh, cry, and rethink happily ever after.

(With a guest appearance from the reclusive, mysterious, interdimensionally successful and arguably fictional self-published romance maven and online bestseller, D’Ancey LaGuarde)

Marjolein Robertson: O

A show about the body. Marjolein embarks on the second instalment of her standup trilogy by looking at a health condition that, left unspoken about in the past, was almost fatal. Now, shaking off the shame and armed with knowledge, Marjolein talks through menstrual health with humour and another Shetland folktale. This time the oldest story of Shetland about the deity Sea Midder.

Ray O’Leary - Your Laughter Is Just Making Me Stronger

The deadpan, Ray O’Leary (‘Taskmaster NZ’) is a big brain in an ill-fitting suit. Every time he does stand-up and people laugh, he gets stronger. Soon he will be the most powerful man in the universe. When the show ends, he’ll be able to lift a car above his head.

Fresh from a sold-out Edinburgh Fringe Festival run, the Best Show Nomination at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and 3x nominee for Best Male Comedian by the NZ Comedy Guild.

Ray is a staple on Australasian television including ‘Have You Been Paying Attention?’, ‘Thank God You’re Here’, and ‘7 Days’.

Round The Horne

Classic comedy fans will be in their element as Apollo Theatre Company brings the classic radio comedy show, Round The Horne to life in this exciting production.

This production transports the audience back to the late 1960s and the anarchic, boisterous atmosphere of the BBC’s Paris Theatre during the recordings of the programme that defined the genre for decades to come, complete with a live band and live sound effects.

Kate Butch: Wuthering Sh*tes
