The brand new Hutt Comedy Club launches its first show on Friday 23rd February with special headline act, Cohen Holloway.
As seen on blockbuster movies Thor, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, and What we do in the Shadows, Holloway makes a return to where he started out, live on stage.
His stories and impressions have entertained audiences across the country, in various comedy clubs as well as TV shows such as 7Days, and Maori TV's Find me a Maori Bride.
The two hour showcase will be MC'd by Wellington expat Sully O'Sullivan. Back for a short trip home from his comedy career in the UK, Sully has performed across the UK and Europe.
Speaking from his home base of Manchester, "This gig is great if for no other reason than just how ridiculous it makes my February diary look: Lichfield, Liverpool, Ormskirk, Thorton-Cleveleys, Stoke Upon Trent, Stafford, Lower Hutt...."
Sully has been described as 'quintessentially Kiwi comedy' by The Press, and a
'a blast of hilarity' by the Manchester Evening News.
Newcomers Kris Beattie, Sri Nair, Grace Leung and Tui Christie round out the line up, ensuring this show will have a little something for everyone.
Taking place in the Hutt Old Boys Marist Clubrooms, the Hutt Comedy Club is set to become a regular feature in the valley, bringing the best of local and national talent to the heart of the Hutt.
Tickets are available from Eventfinda.co.nz and the clubrooms.

Thanks to the 2600 of you who completed our Sunday Star-Times/Neighbourly poll on NZ's changing attitudes to meat and veges. We reported the results this weekend - and they were fascinating.

We reported the results this weekend - and they were fascinating.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it reveals our most loyal meat-eaters are in farming provinces like Southland, Manawatu-Wanganui and Taranaki, where nearly two-thirds of us eat meat most days. By comparison, fewer than half of respondents in Wellington, Auckland and Northland eat that much meat. More than a third of Aucklanders and Cantabrians say they are reducing their meat consumption; another 13 per cent have already cut it from their diets entirely.
>> So here's a question: should city-dwellers be supporting our farmers better, given they're still the backbone of our economy? Or do farmers and the rest of us need to be working together to find new solutions - new premium meats, new meat alternatives - to reflect reducing meat consumption around the world?

- Check your guttering is clear.
- Check and clear the area around any drains you have on your property.
- If you’re aware of any areas where water collects or flows through your property, sandbags can help keep it away. Sandbags can be found at DIY stores such as Mitre10 and Bunnings.
- Have a look at the gutter and street drains outside your property. Are they clear of leaf litter and other debris? If you notice any significant blockages contact your local council.
- Put any rubbish in your wheelie-bin and tie down anything that might get caught in the wind, such as BBQ covers and trampolines.
- Check on your neighbours, and help them out if you can.
Flood events happen quickly, and can do a lot of damage in a short amount of time.
Stay out of flood waters, as there is a risk manhole lids have come loose, there could be debris floating in the water, and it can be contaminated with sewerage.
