KEY POINTS:
Mwah ha ha. The NZ International Comedy Festival has rolled around again.
Looks like the same old line-up, which is good because these guys made us laugh last year: Ardal O'Hanlon, Carl Barron, Dai Henwood, Rich Hall, Ewen Gilmour, Ed Byrne, Phil Nichol, Stephen K. Amos, Dylan Moran, Peter Hellier and Mike King.
The Comedy Festival runs from May 4-27 in Auckland and May 7-26 in Wellington.
Tickets to the festival opening night's Comedy Gala at the St James are on sale now through TicketDirect.
