Queen of funny returning to the Mount

If you're a Tauranga City councillor heading along to next month's Laugh Club and voted to axe the New Year's festivities – expect a bit of ribbing.

'You know that's never going to work right? You can't tell thousands of young people ‘don't come out and party', they're just going to party harder,” says comedian Urzila Carlson. 'I really can't wait to dredge that one up.”

Urzila is part of an all-star comedic Kiwi line-up who'll be taking to the stage at Club Mount Maunganui on Totara St on November 4.

Cracking jokes and taking pot-shots alongside Urzila at the first Laugh Club at the Mount in 18 months are fellow comedians and good buddies Tom Furniss, Nick Rado and Tarun Mohanbhai

'Nick is my writing buddy and Tarun is my, y'know, whenever you're bored or find a new biscuit in the shop you ring him up and say: ‘Bro did you see this?'

'I also sometimes guest host on The Rock with Tom, who I've known ever since he started; he looked like a young innocent lesbian but now he's a fully fledge ‘can almost grow a goatee' guy.”

If you wander down for the gig next month, it's almost guaranteed the axed NYE celebrations won't be the only local issue in the firing line.

'As soon as I hit a town I go get the local rag and go through it. I just get a feel for the city and also it depends on how my drive down was, how much road rage will be in the show.”

The Laugh Club featuring Urzila Carlson, Tom Furniss, Tarun Mohanbhai and Nick Rado is on at Club Mount Maunganui on Totara St on November 4, from 8.30pm. Tickets cost $30-35 from Eventfinda

...waste money on this crass so-called comedian who seems to think that using the f... word incessantly is somehow remotely funny. We Kiwis can do better than that.

Totally agree ,she is the most foul mouthed panelist on the show 7Days she cannot seem to say anything funny without a tirade of the F..., word and this show still has a degree of censorship.
