First Laughs (Wellington)

The 2007 NZ International Comedy Festival presents


Lindauer Presents… First Laughs

LAUGHING IS PARAMOUNT THIS FESTIVAL SEASON

The mighty Paramount theatre raises the curtain on the glitterati event of the Wellington comedy festival on Tuesday 8 May for the opening night extravaganza – FIRST LAUGHS.

Winner of the 2004 Billy T Award and celebrated Wellington comedian Ben Hurley, returns home from the UK to host this star-studded showcase which offers audiences a chance to check out the very best on offer in the upcoming 3 weeks of Festival madness. This year’s lineup includes Dai Henwood, Steve Wrigley, Brendhan Lovegrove and more.

Selling out in 2006, FIRST LAUGHS returns to the capital city to a bigger venue to accommodate the swelling demands of comedy hungry audiences. Whilst the Paramount is certain to feed more of the lust for laughs, only a limited number of tickets will be released for public sale – so don’t wait to catch the giggle and book ahead for this exclusive showcase of exceptional comedy.

Visit www.comedyfestival.co.nz for the full line up which will be announced in April.

Jokes are always funniest the first time round!
