Presented by: Booth the Clown and Jak Darling
From: Te Whanganui-a-Tara | Wellington
Two genderfluid powerhouses Booth the Clown and Jak Darling come together in holy(ish) matrimony to showcase their talents with wit, sparkle, and delight. They might not share a bed but they do share many skills, including music, magic, stand-up, poetry, puppetry, theatre, mime, clown, and ... emus? Unapologetically queer, and unapologetically themselves, they unite showcasing the celebration of friendship focusing on queer celebration, not toleration.
Our two stars gravitated towards each other while performing in the Pōneke comedy scene. Coming together like a supernova with their near sellout debut season of Delightfool at the 2024 NZ Fringe Festival, they went on to win the Auckland Fringe Tour Ready Award and were nominated for the San Diego, Adelaide, Melbourne, and Dunedin Fringe Tour Ready awards. Their Auckland Fringe Festival 2024 season saw them crowned winners of the Outstanding Theatre, Outstanding Collective, and Dunedin Tour Ready awards. The duo is making waves in the comedy scene and are 2025 Billy T Award nominees.
"To be silly is to be vulnerable, and to be vulnerable is to be strong. That’s the need that Delightfool fulfils. It’s laughter as rebellion. It’s joy as an act of resistance." - Sazzok (Sarah) Krieg, badapple reviews
