The Comedy Culture Holiday Buffet is a three-course, all-you-can-eat extravaganza over three nights that welcomes you to dive into the succulent, comedic feast of all things Comedy Culture!

9 DEC | Tuesday | First Course 

For starters, you'll be served up a piping hot tasting tray of Improv Soup! Let the Head Chef tantalise your comedic tastebuds as they lead a team of budding Sous Chefs to compete head-to-head in improvised scenes, competing for -you guessed it- SOUP. Only one improvisor is the winner, but everyone takes home soup.

10 DEC | Wednesday | Main Course

For mains, it's a smorgasbord of queer chaos with the variety show Can't Think Straight! Comedians, Muso's, Drag Artists and Theatre-Makers take the stage however they want and serve you piping hot talent in this unashamedly queer, experimental Variety show.

11 DEC | Thursday | Dessert

And you best believe you'll be ordering dessert because everyone's fave Comedy lineup show, Femmes & Thems, is here to leave you with something sweet from some of Aotearoa's Women & Gender-nonconforming Comedians!

Whether you join for one course or for all three, Basement Theatre's team can't wait to have you join in for the Comedy Culture Holiday Feast.

This feast of art and comedy - unless you win SOUP during Improv Soup this isn't a food-based feast.
