Meet the comics…
Courtney (Ngāti Kurī, Waikato-Tainui) is an award-winning Auckland-based comedian, mother, and occasional, begrudging biography writer. She is the co-host of two seasons of Māori Television’s Rags are Riches, has appeared on TVNZ’s Have You Been Paying Attention? and has co-written a sitcom that is currently in development.
Courtney stumbled into her first comedy gig in 2018, and since then has been traveling round the motu, spinning yarns and breaking hearts. She was the winner of the NZ Raw Comedy Quest and Best Newcomer Award in 2019, before going on to debut a sold out duo-show in the 2021 International Comedy Festival, Half and Hawhe.
A rising star of the Aotearoa comedy scene, she hopes to continue rising until eventually exploding spectacularly in a giant ball of fire.
Bailey Poching is a Sāmoan and Māori comedian and filmmaker who was raised in Wakefield, England. Trapped the blustery Yorkshire moors, this bright eyed Polynesian developed a warped sense of self, as well as an unhealthy need for attention. A comedian’s ultimate tools.
With a disarmingly warm presence and a dry and intelligent comedic style, Bridget finds the surprising hilarity in a mix of day-to-day observations and honest, relatable experiences. She combines her quirky view on things with a refreshingly genuine approach and whether it's with or at her, Bridget is guaranteed to have you laughing. Bridget was a 2016 National Raw Quest Finalist and has since been nominated for Best Newcomer and Breakout Comedian at the NZ Comedy Guild Awards.
Itay has been on the Auckland comedy scene for the last 8 years and most recently was seen getting eliminated from the Bachelorette NZ. He can be heard on Radio New Zealand and has written for popular comedy shows such as 7 Days and Have You Been Paying Attention.
"Great gags and a truly original comic voice" - Ben Hurley (7 Days)
Often absurd, sometimes dark, and frequently silly; Joel Vinsen approaches stand-up with equal parts respect and contempt.
