Musical comedy to brighten your soul

Surprisingly optimistic for a pessimist, Brendon Green takes to the stage armed with an acoustic guitar, charming songs, and a deceptively dark sense of humor spun through his smiling upbeat delivery in his all new show Everything Is Meaningless And Nothing Matters, LOL.

Using original songs filled with catchy riffs and clever lyrics, Auckland native Brendon Green finds the best possible reasons why it's actually quite nice to go through life thinking that everything is meaningless. Not as depressing as it sounds (that would defeat the point of it being a comedy show), Everything Is Meaningless And Nothing Matters, LOL, is a joyous look at life, which, if were being honest, is a bit of a joke anyway.

With songs and stories about everything from mixing literature and ladies to crashing funerals for inappropriate reasons, Brendon Green generates laughs from all sorts of places. And the best part is that it's not completely filthy, so teenagers and the elderly are more than welcome to join (because they are people too, in case you didn't know).

Brendon Green's Everything Is Meaningless And Nothing Matters, LOL is part of the 2012 New Zealand International Comedy Festival, and will be performed at Brooklyn Bar in Auckland at 7pm, from Tuesday 8 May through to Saturday 12 May.
