Harley Breen Just a Fully Naked Encounter

Harley Breen Just a Fully Naked Encounter


Exposing yourself is difficult; sometimes your leg gets stuck in your pants. Other times, we’re just not ready to let it all hang out.

Whether it’s literally or figuratively, most people will avoid exposing themselves, if they can. Harley Breen has made a career out of it and is set to bare all again at the New Zealand Comedy Festival.

At 6’4, bearded and dressed in a checked shirt, this Queensland-born ‘lumbersexual’ is one of Australia’s premier stand-up comedians. He is the go-to host for Melbourne Comedy Festival live events, and has toured to Singapore, Hong Kong, India, and the UK.

Come see the comic that everybody is laughing at; and the person UK superstarRussell Howard personally handpicked to support them around Australia and New Zealand. New Zealand audiences have also seen Harley at 2014 Big Boys Toys, and as the opening act for Heath Franklin’s Chopper in his recent 2014 New Zealand tour.

There probably won’t be any nudity… probably.

“A hilarious break from comedy stereotypes, very funny” - The Age

“Harley leaves the audience begging for more” - MX Melbourne

'Confident without being boorish, incisive without being cruel, rude without being gratuitous, his comedy is grounded in the everyday and elevated by his charm and perceptiveness.' - The West Australian.

“He reminds me of a young Billy Connolly” - The Heckler

As seen on: TV1’s Best Bits, Just For Laughs Comedy Gala, It’s a Date - ABC1
