We
can’t keep it in the bag any longer!
Cosmic
Shambles LIVE bring their one-night-only
tasting menu of witty stand-up, fascinating scientific
explorations and big name musicians to
Auckland, Wellington and
Christchurch this April!
The UK roadshow have
booked three of NZ’s top musicians to perform short sets
as part of their eclectic line-up!
Hollie Smith, one of NZ’s best loved singer-songwriters, will indulge Christchurch audiences with her powerful melodies and smooth vocals.
Lawrence Arabia will treat Auckland audiences to his sublime indie-pop melodies. This big-name musician has garnered worldwide attention with four CD’s under his belt!
Jon Toogood will rock out with his fellow Wellingtonians - revered around the country for his band’s Shihad and The Adults, Wellington audiences will revel in his stunning voice and seamless guitar work.
PLUS three more of NZ’s top brains are joining the fun!
Dr Siouxsie
Wiles will amalgamate herself into the Auckland and
Wellington shows.
An award-winning scientist and
communicator who has made a career of manipulating nasty
microbes, Wiles is also famed for her bright pink
hairdo!
Shaun Hendy will jump on
board the Wellington and Christchurch shows.
A physics
whizz, award-winning science communicator, academic leader
and author, Hendy encourages scientists to become advocates
– inspiring the world with their fascinating
discoveries.
Matt Stellingwerf will unite
with his fellow comedians in all three NZ shows.
Matt’s
razor-ship wit, award-winning banter, and intellectual
story-telling has rocked comedy stages across Australia and
NZ.
Comedian and self-proclaimed ‘interested idiot’ Robin Ince alongside comedian Josie Long will be hosting this ever-growing line-up of comedians, scientists and musicians from the UK and NZ. Kiwi names already confirmed are Dr Michelle Dickinson and James Nokise.
