Chris Parker; Stop Being So Dramatic!
 

I’ve heard the expression ‘Stop being so dramatic” my whole life. But only now, at the culturally relevant age of 34, am I ready to address it and face these drama queen allegations head-on. Please join me, Chris Parker, for an hour of high-intensity, feverishly paced and dizzyingly expressive comedy. Sure, I’ve cried in every speech I’ve ever had to deliver publicly, and yes, there may have been a situation this year where I slept on my neck weirdly and bought myself an unnecessary neck brace. Still, I’m desperate to prove that I’m really chill and down to earth. So, what better way to get you to understand that than with a one-man variety hour spectacle chill stand-up comedy hour?

Building on this momentum, 2024 saw Chris host the New Zealand Comedy Festival Galas, tour his latest show, Give Me One Good Reason Why I Shouldn't Throw My Phone Off This Bridge, to full houses throughout Australia and New Zealand, make his prime-time Australian TV debut on Thank God You’re Here (where he won the episode) and release the highly anticipated second season of Double Parked.

    MJ the Musical takes you on an immersive experience, like a montage of Michael’s memories and influences leading up to his ‘Dangerous’ tour.

    Going from that show to Mary said what she said was like going from a Mozart piano concerto to one of the more repetitive pieces by Philip Glass.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    At 11.50am on October 15 1970, 35 men fell to their death as their place of work gave way from under them.

    There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
