About

Those lunatics of historical hysteria are back with their final installment in their “COMPLETE HISTORY OF…” series. The Outwits take their final turn in the Daffodil Lawn with The Complete History of Christchurch (Abridged).

 

From Ngāi Tahu to Ngaio Marsh, from the colonists to the Crusaders The Outwits cover 4,500 years of history in just under 90 minutes.

 

Greg Cooper, Jared Corbin and Andrew Ford are back with yet another cheeky comic deconstruction and this time, the last time, they are looking at themselves as Christchurch locals... and if you live in Christchurch, you just might feature…

 

Come join them in celebrating what it means to be a one-eyed Cantabrian! Bring your picnic, bring your family, bring your sense of parochial pride, for a night out in a glorious spot with some lovely free outdoor theatre sponsored by Anthony Harper Lawyers.

 

A DVD recording of the show will be available for purchase in the near future. If you would like to be contacted when this is available please click here.

 

Cancelled if wet.
