Eric Andre announces debut New Zealand shows.

Comedian Eric Andre will make his first ever appearance in New Zealand next May, playing two shows at Auckland’s Q Theatre on Friday 12th and Saturday 13th May.

Tickets go on sale from December 16th, with a pre-sale running from December 14th until December 15th, with tickets costing $49.90.

Here’s the official show info:

“Currently in Australia for his sold-out run of debut shows, Frontier Comedy are thrilled to announce that Eric Andre will return to our shores in May 2017 for his biggest Australian shows to date and first ever Auckland shows.

Fans Down Under cannot get enough of Eric; his debut tour sold out in just days with an extra Sydney show added to meet massive demand and record-breaking attendances in Melbourne. Both Comic’s Lounge shows saw Eric pull the biggest crowds the venue had ever seen - breaking the attendance record previously held by Jim Jefferies in 2012 - with audiences treated to a special surprise appearance from The Eric Andre Show co-host Hannibal Buress.

Boundary-pushing comedian and the world’s most unstable talk show host Eric Andre has been perplexing and provoking audiences with late night cult hit The Eric Andre Show since 2012, where he’s made Tyler The Creator cry, exposed himself to Seth Rogen, and covered Ariel Pink in toilet water. But he's been bringing the laughs long before then with his daring and inventive approach to stand-up. Every bit as uproarious as he is bizarre, Andre's unyielding enthusiasm, infectious energy and surrealist humour have him consistently selling out venues across the US and Canada.

Adult Swim’s top-rated The Eric Andre Show is currently on the air for its fourth season and sees Eric and his long-time friend/profoundly apathetic co-host Hannibal Buress continue to bemuse huge guests such as A$AP Rocky, Jack Black, Kelly Osbourne, Amber Rose, T.I, Chris Rock, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Rogen, Andy Samberg, Lauren Conrad, among others. Andre also stars in Man Seeking Woman, 2 Broke Girls, Don’t Trust the B---- in Apt. 23, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping and The Internship.

With his outlandish and hilarious behaviour always on full display, Andre continues to amuse fans onscreen and off with his irreverent sense of humour. Don’t miss your chance to see Eric in Australia and New Zealand this May - tickets are sure to go fast!”

The Frontier Members pre-sale will run from  Wednesday 14 December 2pm, until Thursday 15 December 2pm. Sign up to the pre-sale here.

Tickets go on sale to the general public from Friday 16 December at 12pm via The Q Theatre’s website.
