Back from Cripple Creek Colorado for a visit, armed with a brand new show, NZ’s favourite country music legend, Wilson Dixon, is back For the First Time. Again.  Running from the 25th April – 16th May at Montecristo, Wilson Dixon for the First Time. Again. promises to follow in its prequel’s tracks to a sell-out season. 

With his messy divorce to Maureen now firmly behind him (or rather beside him – Maureen is still living next door with his neighbour Dwayne). Wilson has officially moved on and has fallen in love. Things are good, as long as Maureen stays on her side of the hedge, and Wilson’s large extended family can bring themselves to accept someone “from outta town”, and how will his angry horse “Andrew” and his dog “Biscuit” react to a new lady in the house?

Wilson Dixon‘s star has not stopped rising since he won the supreme New Zealand International Comedy Festival FRED Award in 2010. Wilson took the UK scene by storm playing seasons at Edinburgh Fringe, Glasgow Comedy Festival and the Leicester Comedy Festival – to name but a few. 

Dixon has worked with comedy greats, Stewart Lee, Stephen K Amos and David O’Doherty and was nominated for the coveted Chortle Comedy award. Wilson is a New Zealand International Comedy Festival’s Comedy Gala favourite and he looks forward to bringing his own dead-pan style of killer one-liners and great musical comedy back to NZ – this time he is in love… will it mean a more mellow Wilson? Is that even possible?

As part of the 2015 NZ International Comedy Festival in cahoots with Old Mout Cider, for some great laughs, grab your favourite people and join us from 24 April – 17 May.
