It's Rhys Darby Night

Date(s):
11 November 2009 - 13 November 2009
Venue:
Opera House


Rhys Darby comes to the Opera House for the first time!

Rhys Darby shot to cult international stardom as Murray Hewitt, the inept, but lovable manager in TV's Flight of the Conchords.  He has gone on to star in films  "Yes Man" with Jim Carrey and in Richard Curtis' "The Boat that Rocked".

But before finding fame as an actor Rhys was a standup comedian. His standup has been described as a sensational blend of sound effects, characterisations and askew observations.

His career has taken him from his homeland of New Zealand, to the U.K. and beyond.  He has performed his unique brand of humor in places as far flung as Iceland to the Falkland Islands, and in festivals from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to Montreal's Just for Laughs.

The release of his standup DVD, Rhys Darby Live :Imagine That! filmed in LA last year is one of his proudest achievements, especially as it has now gone double platinum in NZ.

This new show 'It's Rhys Darby Night' comes direct from seasons in Los Angeles, London and Edinburgh.  It combines new standup and his favourite character portrayals.

"He's got that Peter Sellers madness inside of him." Jim Carrey
