Mr Boon is back with an exciting NEW show for kids of all ages.

By day Mr Boon is a primary school teacher passionate about teaching. Having written and performed sketch comedy for 15 years this dedicated teacher combines his skill as a comic and a teacher in these hilarious kids shows.

Mike Boon started out as a member of the Comedy Club at Massey University. In his 20s in Auckland he turned to standup comedy and was seen regularly at the Classic Comedy Club and on Pulp Comedy. He spent ten years in the UK, including appearances at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Now a husband to a Scottish wife and father of one, Mr Boon has found his calling, introducing kids to the fine art of laughing so much snot comes out of your nose.

Suitable for all ages, but ideal for ages 4 to 100

My 8-year-old son said on leaving the theatre: "I think that might be the best play I've ever seen. It was so funny!" Theatreview

"It had both the seven year old and eleven year old in fits of laughter. The only danger is a flying cream pie. " Thread.co.nz
