Comic Addiction

Comic Addiction Dunedin's newest comedy production team, committed to producing innovative and exciting shows that break the status quo. It's anyone's guess.

After struggling to maintain high audience attendance to comedy shows in Dunedin, New Zealand; Comic Addiction co-founder Lockie Scott saw that change is what is needed to breath new life into southern comedy. With their first show: Relapse to première in the 2013 Dunedin Fringe Festival, the tables are turned on the comics. That is the audience decides the topics and panellists have only 10-15 mi

nutes to prepare 5 minutes worth of material to be performed then and there before other panellists have the opportunity to showcase their improvisational skills in the panel segments. Will these brilliant comedic minds sink or swim? One thing's for sure, you won't see anything like it again.

Just heard that Ewan Gilmour passed away. He was a true gem of NZ comedy, funniest westie I ever met. I always wished I could have performed with him, maybe I cant do that, but what I can do is laugh at his material forever.. Comic Addiction extends its condolences to all his friends and family.

"Genie, you're free."
Robin Williams, you were an inspiration to all of us, our lives and especially our childhoods wouldn't have been as joyous without you.

Challenge: Make up an excuse for why each of these items is not useful to a cat before it knocks it off the table, then as the cat knocks it over, say "No thank you." It'll improve your day dramatically.

So that's their purpose in life
