New Zealand can’t get enough of Bill Bailey.

The UK comedian last came to our shores in 2023, tickets to his ‘Thoughtifier’ tour selling out.

He’ll be back towards the end of the year, bringing a celebration of comedy, songs, and skills by the name of ‘Vaudevillean’ to Kiwi audiences.

Bailey joined Heather du Plessis-Allan to delve into comedy, technology and AI, the resurgence of people seeking out live shows and performances, and just why Kiwis love him so much.

“Most of life is just showing up, and so if you turn up somewhere and you show willing, then I think you draw people along with you.”

“Plus the fact I think there’s quite a lot of similarity between our senses of humour. I think there’s a sort of shared love of the absurd, and a love of language, and a love of the general sort of oddity of life.”
