This year at Palmy Comedy Fest you have the unique opportunity to witness the strength of Maori Street Comedy.
You can take the boy out of the Hood. But can you take the Hood out of the Boy?
Born into a neighbourhood where gangsters drink Moccona because it has more MMM, comes an epic tale of one man’s mission to escape the Hood.
So come to the show and find out how Kajun escaped a life of poverty, gangs and violence. And replaced it with the life he had always dreamed of where he can afford to buy food, shelter and Lego.
As seen on TikTok, Te Karere and The Hui. Kajun is a multi-award-winning comedian that you need to look out for but not in a Police Ten 7 kind of way.
