An oversharer with a splash of OCD, comedian, improviser and playwright Mo Munn was once called “unhinged” by a reviewer - and now she’s made it her whole personality! In her first solo hour, Mo squishes stand up, experimental and improvised comedy together for a rapid-fire whiplash of a show! Think one woman comedy buffet, packed with chaotic jokes, outlandish stories and a touch of spectacle. Fresh from debuting at the NZ International Comedy Fest, and taking home two comedy awards, Is it off? will keep audiences on their toes, delivering a comedy experience more hectic than a high school rave.
“… her show goes off in a very good way. It deserves to travel far and wide, as long as the oven is up for that." - John Smythe, Theatreview
" She jabs and slices at her audience and draws laughs instead of blood.... Thematically it's perfect" - Wellyott
