A History of Wellington Comedy
- Salient
- A couple of years ago, Wellington beat out Ekatahuna to be New Zealand’s cultural capital. It’s been an uphill battle to keep our struggling creative industries alive ever since. Comedy, oft considered the bastard genre of entertainment has been something that we as a city have had to toy with. For you see, lads and ladies, Wellington’s comedy tradition is one that is largely tied into the other arts, comedy would occasionally piggy back on one of the mediums that were used for more serious endeavours.
