Rhys Mathewson is your favourite comedian’s favourite comedian. It turns out a lot of people all over the country have seen him on Taskmaster but haven't seen him live. Rhys is correcting that mistake and bringing everyone up to speed.

Rhys is bringing all his best jokes in a 2 hour mega show. 2 hours? In this economy? INCREDIBLE value for you.

First up, it’s an hour of the best jokes he’s got. After an interval, Rhys will then perform his award-winning show 10th Rodeo - winner of the NZICF Director's choice award, and the best show he’s ever made.

It’s an all killer no filler, tour de force from one of the best stand ups in the country.
