About Urzila Carlson: Just Jokes

Carlson has become one of the biggest names in comedy in Australia and New Zealand. Her new tour arrives hot on the heels of her 2023 sold-out UK tour, It's Personal.

An undeniable tour de force of the comedy world, Urzila hasn't stopped since taking to the comedy stage. She has sold out seasons in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe.

A fan favourite on season 2 of Taskmaster NZ in New Zealand, now airing on Channel 4. In 2024, Urzila made her UK TV debut with an appearance on QI.

Later this year, she'll make her mark in feature animation as the voice of Honkus in the film Ozi alongside Donald Sutherland, Laura Dern, Ru Paul, and Amandla Stenberg.

Book early; this tour is a guaranteed sell-out.
