Carr will be performing in Christchurch on November 23, Auckland on November 24 and Wellington on November 26.
Christchurch has seen a lot of changes since his last visit here in 2016.
“I couldn’t believe Christchurch when I went there,” he told gayexpress.co.nz.
“Still not sorted out after the earthquakes, it was heartbreaking.”
He described his first tour post-divorce as "very personal."
“I wrote the show in 2020. It was all about getting married, living on a farm and falling in love with a farmer but then like a lot of people in Lockdown, I went ‘why the hell am I in this relationship? Why am I living here?’ A lot of self analysis and then the marriage broke down.”
“So I just wrote it really quickly.
"Opened my heart, wrote it all down on paper… It was nerve-racking because I was actually writing it in real time.
"Because as I was touring, he got arrested for drunk driving. He went to prison … Journalists were coming into the show, writing it all down, just waiting for little snippets of stuff and taking everything out of context for clickbait. So, it’s been a very odd experience. But the show’s better for it – it’s more raw,” he explained to gayexpress.co.nz.
Carr's show at the Isaac Theatre Royal is sold out.
