LE COMIQUE
HOSTED BY JARRED CHRISTMAS & URZILA
CARLSON
Now in its third year, it’s time to celebrate the Queen and Country with a fresh import of Comedy from across the Commonwealth at Le Comique, Sunday 12th May at Auckland’s SKYCITY Theatre.
Co-hosted by highly acclaimed ex-pat icons Jarred Christmas (NZ/UK) and Urzila Carlson (SA/NZ), with a line-up that’s guaranteed to entertain and delight you, with a hilarious taster of comedy from around the world.
Joining Christmas and Carlson on stage are the titillating talents of the miraculous comedium Ian D Montfort (UK), the charming Markus Birdman (UK), the saucy sisters of high-end filth Titty Bar Ha Ha (UK), our very own silent superstar The Boy With Tape On His Face, and many more… even a Welshman.
Throwing something new into the mix, for the first time ever the on-stage shenanigans will be accompanied by the Le Comique house band; NZ’s premier lounge singer Vance Fontaine and His Peculiar Sensations. Having unleashed his sultry crooning ways to ‘Princes and Kings, the glitteringly rich and the down at heel, for the famous and the infamous, the powerful and the downtrodden’ it seems only fitting that we allow Vance and his world-class band to weave his on-the-spot stories and songs in this Commonwealth comedy celebration.
With all this said, it’s fair to say that the stage is set for a show which the likes of which have never been seen by the modern world. Keep calm and comedy on!
