TRYGVE WAKENSHAW in
NAUTILUS

Following his outstanding FRED award winning performance at last year’s festival our very own loveable idiot Trygve Wakenshaw returns to NZ to premiere his highly anticipated new physical comedy NAUTILUS at the Herald Theatre from 28 April – 2 May, 2015.

Maker of popular cult physical comedies KRAKEN and SQUIDBOY Wakenshaw has sold out in Auckland, Wellington, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth London, Edinburgh and even Oslo. Both works have also raked in the awards with SQUIDBOY picking up Best Performance at the Auckland Fringe 2013 and Chapman Tripp Award for Most Original Production 2013.

Trygve’s second show KRAKEN followed suit picking up the Underbelly Edinburgh Award, Adelaide and was nominated for both the Barry Award and the Golden Gibbo award at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Last year he also took home the top festival accolade – The FRED Award.

Local and international favourite Trygve Wakenshaw, armed with his distinctive brand of comedy is yet again set to make waves with NAUTILUS at the 2015 NZ International Comedy Festival.
