Rising Aussie comedy star Kirsty Webeck is set to be touring Aotearoa for the first time ever, after a smash hit run during the NZ International Comedy Festival 2024, including featuring on the Best Foods Comedy Gala 2024.
Kirsty is a gifted Aussie storyteller, with a natural ability for turning the mundane into the hilarious, which has quickly made her one of the most popular comedians in Australia.
Kirsty’s current show I’ll Be The Judge Of That is packed full of jokes about her relationship with farmers, a proposal for a new national day and a run-in with a concert band. The main thing you need to know is: she’ll have you crying with laughter, and you have to see this show.
“I’m absolutely stoked to be touring NZ for the first time and can’t wait to start some arguments about lamingtons and Russell Crowe while I’m here” says comedian Kirsty Webeck. “Aotearoa truly feels like my home away from home and I promise I won’t smuggle any fruit across the border!”
Webeck is a regular fixture on the live comedy circuit in Australia, having performed on the Sydney and Perth Comedy Festival opening galas and hosted the comedy stage at The Falls Festival in Byron Bay.
Here in NZ, she has performed in 2024’s Best Foods Comedy Gala, televised on THREE. Her other TV appearances include 7 Days and in Australia, Tonightly with Tom Ballard, Metrosexual, How To Stay Married, SBS’ Celebrity Letters and Numbers, The Weekly with Charlie Pickering, Channel 10’s Just For Laughs, Question Everything, The Project and more.
Her first stand-up comedy special ‘Silver Linings‘ was released on Paramount Plus in November 2022.
She’s also a regular guest on ABC radio and comedy podcasts, including guest appearances on Do Go On, Confessions, Wilosophy and The Dollop’s ‘Past Times.’
Her many corporate event credits include hosting Women’s Agenda’s Annual Women in Leadership Awards 2022 and 2023 and the Victorian Pride Awards 2023.
I’ll Be The Judge Of That’s NZ tour is produced by TAP Live Events led by Tim Batt and Paul Link, also producing Eli Matthewon’s show Night Terror in Hamilton and producers of Tofiga Fepulea’i’s sold-out Auckland show I Love You Full Speed No Brakes earlier this year.
