NAT has an ever-changing line up; that’s the beauty of having an open-access theatre venue! See what your favourite performers are up to and discover new artists, by checking here regularly. NAT doesn’t pre-programme seasons, so this is where you can see what we have going on. We have a bar open from 1 hourish before the show, and you are welcome to take your drinks into the theatre (there’s no BYO!)
Paul Ego: Stick
Sat 21 Feb, 730pm
Tix: HERE
Bar open from 630pm
It’s taken 30 years of performing comedy for PAUL EGO to get off his butt and do a solo NZ tour, so this is both very exciting and long overdue! Well known for his many years as Team Captain on the TV show ‘7DAYS’, Paul has also been part of award winning Breakfast Radio shows for both MoreFM and The Rock. However, his crowning achievement now seems to be voicing ‘Stickman’ for PAK’nSAVE – something he happily admits is “the best job he’s ever had”. ‘STICK’ is your chance to see “NZ’s Top Professional Comedian” live onstage, delivering maximum laughs as he talks stickability, sticky situations and, of course, stick-men.
