Jerome Chandrahasen
Te Awa Kairangi ki Tai/Lower Hutt
From Foxton Beach to Fairlie, Jerome Chandrahasen (as seen on Wellington Paranormal and the NZ Comedy Gala) has performed around Aotearoa for the past 15 years. A bit of good natured banter, some linguistics, and as always, plenty of laughs.
Jerome Chandrahasen is a regular performer in the NZ International Comedy Festival and NZ Fringe, and has MC'd various events around the country. He has taken his solo shows to the Edinburgh Fringe, NZ Fringe, Nelson, and a nice little pub up in Kāpiti. Every Monday you can find him at Fringe Bar running Raw Meat Monday, Wellington's longest running stand up comedy gig.
