He’s been often cited as the ‘nice guy’ of entertainment in the United States, but multi Emmy award winning Wayne Brady will have you gagging for laughter as he Makes S%!t Up from May 2nd as part of the NZ International Comedy Festival.

The star of Whose Line Is It Anyway and Don’t Forget The Lyrics is well known for his improvisational genius, unique musical talents and limitless impersonation skills. An extremely versatile entertainer, Brady’s show is structured in classic old-time Variety style, incorporating improv, singing and even dancing.

Brady’s appeal is far reaching – from stage and screen to music and television. A three time Emmy award winner, talk show host, musician and actor, it was his works on Whose Line Is It Anyway that brought the lovable and playful Florida native to everyone’s attention.

From that, the offers started flooding in – hosting talk show The Wayne Brady Show, taking to the stage in the Broadway production of Chicago as slick lawyer Billy Flynn, working alongside the likes of Drew Carey in The Drew Carey Show, Tina Fey in 30 Rock and Chris Rock in Everybody Hates Chris.

Brady still found the time to pursue just one of the many strings to his bow – last year, he released his debut R&B album, the suitably named A Long Time Coming. Brady continues to combine his passion for music and television as the current host of Don’t Forget The Lyrics.

He’s also remembered for putting his squeaky-clean image aside from one moment during an episode of Chappelle’s Show, the hit Comedy Central series and uttering the immortal line “Is Wayne Brady going to have to choke a b****?”

Thankfully, the only choking will be from the laughter you can expect from someone who is essentially “the whole darn package.” So why miss out?

Generally I make stuff up to entertain the nieces and nephews. One we recently had fun with was - blinking quickly, but telling them I was winking so fast it just looked like I was blinking - my clever nephew came back with a wink and the line " I am blinking so fast it just looks like I'm winking"

I also make rumors up about people, just for kicks. They're all pretty harmless... mostly. Some of my most far spreading include: a foot fetish rumor about a good friend of mine, a rumor that a Jewish looking friend had no foreskin, that that same Jewish looking friend got shot, that a girl at my school had a moustache... There's more, but those were my most successful.

"Then later on I had another phone call which unraveled in a similar way"
From my dad.

I once told a few friends at school that I'd been hit by a truck one day and was now in hospital, when really I was just home sick. Anyway there I was, sitting at home and enjoying playing video games, when I got a call from my mum asking me if I was alright and if she should come home. I was just like "What are you talking about? I'm just at home sick...". She then explained to me that someone from school had texted my sister, who had texted her. I explained that it was just a joke to some friends and she was relieved. Then later on I had another phone call which unraveled in a similar way. But that wasn't the end of it - for the rest of the day I was receiving worried texts from heaps of different people, all from different schools and areas. Somehow my dirty lie had spread through all the people I knew . The next day at school I had to explain to everyone what had happened, and I still had people asking me "Hey, weren't you hit by a truck?" for a few days afterwards!

I pretended to be real posh one day on the phone because the person I was talking to had a plum in his voice. I thought it was a prank call because some of my friends had been doing this to me. Turns out it was a business friend of my father's who had found out I was at university there and he wondered what sort of person I was, as my father had told him I was very down-to-earth. Got back to my father too, which was embarrassing.
