Did I Believe It?

New Zealand is currently in the clammy grasp of its Comedy Festival – unlike most comedy festivals, this is a nationwide event, not just confined to one city. We went to see Did I Believe It? at the Foxglove Bar & Restaurant.

The show was presented by three guys and one woman, and followed the format of Tomorrow’s World and How?, but with comedic material and satirical purpose. Sounds familiar? Yes, it’s the NZ version of Look Around You.



 Tonight’s subject (sponsored by 42 Below) was vodka – the how, why, what, where and when of vodka. It contained much funniness, and also included 2 42 Below vodka cocktails in the price of admission – a uniquely Kiwi one to start with called a Falling Water, comprised of feijoa-flavoured vodka, Ch'i,  and cucumber; the one served at half-time was a Moscow Mule.

Afterwards we dined downstairs at Foxglove, where we had some rather good lamb and venison.
