THE EMPERORS NEW SHOW

The leading man of New Zealand comedy, internationally renowned and award winning comic Brendhan
Lovegrove, returns in 2007 to deliver his razor sharp wit in ‘The Emperors New Show.’

Following a sell-out 2006 season, Brendhan has gone on to win multiple New Zealand comedy awards, including the inaugural 2006 ‘Fred’ award for outstanding achievement in New Zealand comedy. He was also named best male comedian by the NZCG, and was the owner of best show in 2006

Throughout his career Brendhan has graced stages worldwide, being an invited guest at places such as the Sydney Cracker Comedy Festival, London’s Comedy Store, and UK TV’s ‘Live at Jongleurs.’ Along with hosting the most recent serious of ‘Pulp Comedy,’ Lovegrove has also recently performed on Australia’s Rove Live, a feat unmatched in New Zealand comedy.

This year Brendhan brings his unrivalled stage presence and biting social commentary to bear on topics that the rest of us would dare consider. Arguably the most dangerously talented stand up comedian in New Zealand, Brendhan’s ability to both challenge and delight audiences will be one of the highlights of the 2007 festival.
