TRUE STORIES and Other Stuff That Probably Isn't..

With a stand-up comedy style based strongly in physical theatre and storytelling, Fergus spins a yarn – and some of it’s even true!

Join Wellington comedy favourite Fergus Aitken, for an adult stand-up show that will leave you in stitches. 

 TRUE STORIES is a fresh selection of observations, questions, adventures, fun facts and myths. Some of life's little mysteries will be expanded, explored and exploded! 

 With a stand-up comedy style based strongly in physical theatre and storytelling, Fergus spins a yarn – and some of it’s even true! 

“I love observational comedy”, says Aitken, “Some of the funniest things I’ve ever heard are true . . . like the actor who took herbal viagra which didn’t work until the next day just as he went for his important TV audition . . . or the deer hunters whose bicycles were stolen by recently released, trained circus bears . . . or any of the ridiculously simple raw truths we hear from our children . . .”

 Fergus has played visual and verbal comedy in over a dozen countries across the planet, receiving several standing ovations at a nudist festival in Upper Hutt. He is in regular demands as comedian, MC, character actor, mime artist, physical theatre tutor and corporate presenter. 

 So come out from the cold and tickle your funny bone with TRUE STORIES & Other Stuff That Probably Isn’t!
