About the show
Ray O'Leary pulled a man from a wrecked car and, as the man lay dying, he used his last ounce of strength to ask Ray to tell his children he loved them. Ray will get round to it — but first he has to do this comedy show. This stand-up hour is presented by Impatient Productions and Jubilee Street, and draws on Ray's experiences as a comic who has appeared on Taskmaster NZ and been nominated for Most Outstanding Show at Melbourne Comedy Festival.
Why see this show?
A stand-up show that opens with an extraordinary true story and then earns its comedy from it. Ray O'Leary has the material and the stage presence to make the darkest premise into something genuinely funny.
