Event Details

The Tuning Fork is back for another round of Fork N Funny, a monthly showcase of the country’s best comedy chops.

This 25 March a superstar line-up comes together to celebrate the outstanding talent of NZ comedy!

Headlining is the Pax Assadi, one of the most exciting young acts in New Zealand. Beginning his comedy journey in 2012, he has since racked up an impressive array of award nominations for his performances on stage including the 2013 Billy T Award, 2015 NZCG Breakthrough Comedian of the Year, and Best Male Comedian of the Year Awards, and in 2016 was nominated for the prestigious Fred Dagg Award. Pax has also appeared on a number of local television shows Including TV One's panel show Word Up, TV 3s 7 Days, Maori TVs Crack-Up, the critically acclaimed Brown Eye, and the 2016 NZ International Comedy Gala.

MCing this night of uproarious laughter is 2022 Billy T nominee Janaye Henry (Ngāti Kahu ki Whangaroa) with her dramatic, political and flirty comedy. Janaye has been making waves since kicking off her comedy career in 2017, including creating iconic content for The Spinoff and writing for Have You Been Paying Attention?.

Rounding out the line-up is previous RAW finalists Bridget Davies and Hannah Campbell. Bridget brings her dry and intellectual comedic stylings to this night of merriment which has garnered her nominations for Best Newcomer and Breakout Comedian at the NZ Comedy Guild Awards. Scottish comedian Hannah is a quickly rising star and regular in the Auckland comedy scene with her personal anecdotes and charm that will have audiences howling with laughter.
