James Roque: Champorado

9 & 10 July, 6pm

Fresh off critically acclaimed runs at the Edinburgh, Toronto, and Vancouver Fringe Festivals—and following a sold-out national tour across Canada—the Filipino son of New Zealand comedy returns with his latest hour, hitting stages across Australia.

What actually matters in life? What should we truly care about? And what do these questions have to do with a breakfast chocolate rice pudding?

Kiwi-Filipino comedy veteran James Roque serves up an hour of his trademark sweet-and-salty stand-up.
