Ben Hurley - Houses of the Holy Live Stand Up Tour
It has been said that Comedy is the new Rock n roll, but stand up comedy was also born in places like this. A place where Ben can fulfil childhood dreams of being a rockstar using his natural blessed talents of comedy. It is the Houses of the Holy Tour, where Ben Hurley and his opening acts tour New Zealand’s most iconic music venues to fill them with hilarious jokes and banter.
8pm — 9pm $$38.50 + Booking Fee
These holiest of holy venues will succumb to the sharpest wit as they entertain audiences without any danger to their hearing, and less sweat than these walls generally see. More seating than ever, and still a gig you’ll be telling your mates about for years to come.
Don’t miss out as Ben and his pals desecrate these venues in the best way possible, with heavy riffs of laughter and wailing solos that will leave you wanting more. Or you can go to another comedy show in a bourgeoisie theatre and celebrate another working class art form being sanitised and commercialised by the middle class! Revolution!
