Originally from Dannevirke, Wellington comic, Sarah Harpur, began her career in stand up in 2008. Tackling the tough subjects, like cannibalism and cat abortion, she quickly made her mark on the local comedy scene.
Sarah is also a budding rock god who will delight meat eaters and vegans alike with her musical numbers, and occasionally time-travels between various dimensions, particularly, the year 4542.
Sarah has performed her unique style of comedy at the Adelaide, NZ, Dunedin and Edinburgh Fringe Festivals.
