The Asian Comedy Takeover is back!

Fresh from the NZ International Comedy Festival’s Wellington Gala, Sameena Zehra is an award winning comedian and storyteller. Her solo comedy hour, Tea With Terrorists, has toured extensively to critical acclaim and she’s making a special visit to Tāmaki Makaurau to headline the Asian Comedy Takeover!

Living in capitalism has made her mildly homicidal, but she is no real danger to the general public.

 '… smart and sharp…a breath of fresh air…’ Nicholas Holm, The Post

Joining her on the line-up are established comics Vasu Premkumar, and Jess Karamjeet with new musical musings! 

Graduate of PACSA (Laughs) – the Pan-Asian Comedy School Aoteaora - Ambika Gkr and Aman Bajaj will also be making their Asian Comedy Takeover debuts!

The Asian Comedy Takeover always sells out – so get in quick for tickets to this blockbuster show.
