Justine Smith in Jussi Town

Justine Smith. Billy T Award Winner, NZ Comedy Guild Best Female Comedian and Sheriff of Jussi Town.

Justine does not suffer fools. No she doesn’t. Those who know Justine will readily testify to the fact the she is one of the most honest and confronting people you’re likely to meet. This combined with her razor sharp wit and biting commentary also makes Justine one of the funniest people you’re likely to meet. Good luck if you want to heckle Justine, you’re basically taking your pride and putting it on a plate for Justine to devour at her pleasure.

So Justine lives in her own world, Jussi Town to be specific, and is the self appointed Sheriff of Jussi Town. That’s the beauty of Justine’s mind-set, by setting yourself in control of your own situation, by default, you’ll always be in control.

“Jussi Town” is an hour of hilarious self-examination by Justine. Its essence is rooted in the fact that only Justine is in charge of Justine. This is a case study in what makes someone like Justine tick. Watch out chumps, Sheriff Jussi is in town.

Known for her previous shows, “The Justine Smith Hour”, “Return of the Jussi” and as part of The Lady Bunch, Justine has been performing comedy around New Zealand and Australia for over a decade.

Expect typically gritty stand up from Justine, it’s what she does best and why she has been in demand both around the country and on our TV screens performing in TV3’s AotearoHA The Tiki Tour Edition, AotearoHA Dai’s Xmas Special and 7Days in 2009.

2010 sees her performing at the World Buskers Festival hosting the late night comedy show, the Adelaide Fringe Festival and the Dunedin Fringe prior to seasons in Auckland and Wellington during the Comedy Festival. This is the dream run into the Festival and means Justine will be in top form come Comedy Festival.
