An update of the New Zealand political satire “McPhail and Gadsby“. The two title actors reprise their roles poking fun at various New Zealand political figures and issues.

Hannah doesn’t smile much and she laughs even less. For a comedian, that’s a bit like being a Transformer who doesn’t fancy driving. But don’t let that deter you. There is great pleasure to be had in laughing at her. Barry Award-nominated for Best Show at the 2011 Melbourne Comedy Festival (where she had to be moved to a bigger venue following ticket demand) and for Best Comedy at the prestigious 2011 Helpmann Award, Mrs Chuckles is a tale of mild success and utter failure told in a manner of vague indifference and total incredulity. It is mostly funny and only fleetingly offensive.

Comedian Hannah Gadsby unravels the apparently simple practice of recreating our own nude human form. Taking a close look at one of the most enduring subjects in western art history.

Hannah is an award-winning comic who just wants a quiet chat about the importance of self-destructive behaviour and the benefits of defective memories.
