The three members of Aunty Donna, a Melbourne-based comedy trio, stand in the woods dressed in sleeping gowns.

Surrealist Australian comedy trio bring their live sketch show to the stage.

It’s zany, it’s unpredictable, and it’s heading to The Opera House. Australian surrealist comedy group Aunty Donna is back on the road. The Melbourne-based trio have written a new show called ‘Drem World Tour’. Its first stop is The Opera House in Wellington. The group is known for wild, off-the-wall skits and a penchant for silliness. 

Formed in 2011 the group’s creativity has spawned live shows, a YouTube channel, a podcast, a studio album, and a television series. Their 2020 Netflix series ‘Aunty Donna’s Big Ol’ House of Fun’ further grew their fanbase. Members of the group have cited Monty Python, Shaun Micallef, and The Mighty Boosh as inspirations for their comedy. Join Mark Bonanno, Broden Kelly, and Zachary Ruane as they present a wacky night of comedy.
