Gavin Hews
American born.... yet kiwi raised.
Along with an incredibly unique biography, Gavin also brings a unique perspective to the stage with his conflicting cultural outlooks on the world. The loud outgoingness of an American, coupled with the tall poppy syndrome of a kiwi creates a charming sense of humour with a healthy underlying dose of good old self-depreciation!
Shannon Basso Gaule
Shannon Basso Gaule is an up and coming stand-up comedian hailing from Ireland, currently plying his trade in Wellington. Shannon is a charming fella who likes to twist the dark and silly to see what comes out.
In 2020 he was awarded Best Newcomer of the Lower North Island by the NZ Comedy Guild.
Nominated for Best Up and Comer and Outstanding Achievement at Wellington Comedy Awards 2020.
Salome Bhanu
Hailing from the land of mangoes, this import is dazed and confused. Don’t get fooled by her innocence, this comedienne is pretty stupid too. If the word ‘oblivious’ had a face, this would be it. Her therapist has pissed herself laughing at her life story and begged her to do it on a public forum. With immense encouragement from her therapist and cats (Banana & Swipey), this comedienne made her debut on stage in Wellington, Nov 2020. This Bollywood reality TV star risks her sanity and yours when she gets on stage. Yeah...Nah Comedy Winner
