Laura Bruce
A Canadian now living in New Zealand, Laura is a Wellington-based author and speaker as well as an aspiring stand-up comedian.
She's been performing comedy regularly since October 2019 after relocating to New Zealand.

Aaron Barber
Former Texan Aaron Barber found himself "stuck" in Aotearoa during the pandemic. Unable to return to his adopted home in Malaysia and unwilling to go back to America for... reasons, Aaron jumped headfirst into the NZ comedy circuit. As co-creator of the Fringe Show "American Refugees", Aaron has been spreading big laughs touring across the North and South island. Brash and loud measured with wit and charm, he's one act you won't want to miss.
Creator of Yeah...Nah Comedy, Thursday Night Comedy Showcase, HOT AS F*CK

Salome Bahnu
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
Gavin Hews
American born... and kiwi raised.
Gavin 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!
