Why are you excited about coming back to NZIF?
NZIF is an exciting chance to collaborate and watch some of the best Improvisers in New Zealand. I love to push and improve myself as a performer and what better way than to work with the best!
Your show (with Wiremu Tuhiwai) deals with some pretty big subjects. What are you hoping to achieve with that work?
I hope Death Comes To Us All inspires the audience to tell people they love them and to live knowing they are going to die. So many people treat life like its never ending and waste their days doing things over and over that they don't like. All of us will die but it is our choice how we live.
