Event: Pax Assadi ‘Handsome Boy’ comedy tour – Oct / Nov 2022

Multi-talented stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and presenter Pax Assadi is hitting the road for his very first nationwide tour of Handsome Boy, hot off the heels of his critically acclaimed sitcom Raised by Refugees. Starting in Palmerston North on October 7th, Pax will delight crowds as he travels to Hamilton, New Plymouth, Hawkes Bay, Nelson, Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland, and Whangarei to deliver an evening of hilarity.
 
Celebrated by peers and critics alike, Pax is one of Aotearoa’s strongest and most important comedic voices. His career started in 2011 and has led to continued success as a stand-up comedian, writer, media personality and actor who has established himself as a much-loved mainstay on NZ television screens. Pax has appeared on Have You Been Paying Attention, 7 Days, The Great Kiwi Bake Off, and 60 Seconds, and in 2020 he hosted the NZ International Comedy Gala to rave reviews. 
 
He’s flexed his acting skills on Mean Mums, Tongue Tied, Jandal Burn and The Breaker Upperers, before going on to release Raised by Refugees, a semi-autobiographical stand-up show which he wrote, produced, and starred in. The show released in 2022 to critical acclaim and has since been renewed for a second season.
 
Pax has racked up an impressive array of awards over the years. At the NZ International Comedy Festival, Pax was nominated for the coveted Billy T and Fred Dagg Awards. He has also been nominated for Best MC, Best Comedy Performance on Television, and Best Male Comedian three times, and has won the award for Gag Of The Year. Pax is currently working on his debut novel.
