Colliding Comedy Views in Shanghai Goons this March

Dunedin comic Gerard Dougherty partners with Filipino act Roland Mirabueno for stand-up banter on colliding world views, culture, and more, dubbed the Shanghai Goons. The unlikely pair of comedians are both regulars on the local and international comedy scene.

Expect a lively hour with both comedians sharing the stage to debate (un)important stuff and improvised banter with audience members.

“Roland and I will have a good time riffing and improvising together,” says Gerard. “The show is all about having a good time with the audience.”

“Gerard is my exact opposite on stage,” says Roland. “He is a white, straight, progressive, calm man. It makes for some pretty interesting clashes.”
