Otago’s finest and funniest women are heading Wanaka way on September 20 to perform a new comedy show.
Lawrence comedian Olivia Montgomery (stage name Monty), recent runner-up at Dunedin’s Raw Comedy Quest, will compere the Wanaka show and is looking forward to returning to the town where she couch-surfed 10 years ago as a "snowbunny".
More recently, Montgomery had been living in Auckland, but 18 months ago she decided to trade in the big city life for a country cottage, complete with a porch, roses and picket fence.
"I have just been really involved in the Otago comedy scene since then. I used to host and produce shows up in Auckland and moved down to Lawrence just to have a nice chill, simple life, but still be entertaining.
"My set actually is all about Lawrence. So yeah, you will hear a lot more about my big city girl in a small-town world experience at the show."
