Amateur comedians Jarrod Ross, Peter Livingstone and Robbie ‘Gooserooter’ Shefford are putting aside their day jobs and joining comedic forces to raise money for Ashburton’s rowers.
They have an R18 event planned at the Tinwald School hall on April 12.
The trio – no strangers to performing on stage – have new material to share. Musician Chris Wood will also perform. Spokesperson Jarrod Ross said it will be an entertaining night from three totally different acts.
‘‘It’s a good opportunity to come along and socialise.’’ he said.
There will also be some items for auction, and raffles to raise funds for the Ashburton Rowing Club which includes the Ashburton College rowers.
‘We’ve done a couple of these before (for Tinwald School and Ashburton Athletics Club) but it’s been two years since the last one,’’ Ross said.
‘‘It’s something light hearted at night and different. We are not professional comedians, yet.’’
‘‘It’s good to come along, have a laugh.’’
– Comedy show fundraiser – R18 event – at the Tinwald School hall on April 12. Doors open from 6pm. Tickets, limited to 100, cost $30 and includes supper. Bar facilities will be available.
