Cancel your therapist, crack a smile and get out and revel in the diverse range of comedy on offer in the ODDFELLOWS NZ International Comedy Festival and The ODDFELLOWS Comedy Gala.
Auckland City is a major funder of the comedy festival, and has supported it annually since it began 13 years ago at the Watershed Theatre. The festival has grown into a major event on the entertainment calendar, and it is great to see it continuing to attract leading international comedians and developing our New Zealand creative talents.
This year's festival features over 250 local and international stars. Headlining this year is Dom Irrera, one of America's greatest comedians and host of the ODDFELLOWS Comedy Gala.
International comedians returning for 2006 include Danny Bhoy (Scotland), Stephen K. Amos (UK) and Andy Parsons (UK). Those venturing over for their first festival appearance include Nancy Cartwright (the voice of Bart Simpson), David O'Doherty (Ireland) and Rhod Gilbert (Wales).
Kicking off proceedings is the glamour comedy event of the year. The ODDFELLOWS Comedy Gala will roll out the red carpet on Friday 12 May 2006. This is your chance to see the best of the fest, in a jam-packed showcase.
Filmed live for television at Auckland's St James Theatre, this high profile event will deliver an impressive line-up including Andy Parsons, Stephen K Amos, David O'Doherty, Janey Godley, Danny Bhoy, Arj Barker, and Jimeoin.
Local icons include Jeremy Corbett, Ewen Gilmour, Jeremy Elwood, Benjamin Crellin, and many more.
This star studded show will sell out so get your tickets early.
