Heath Franklin's Chopper in Harden the F**k Up, New Zealand!

Tickets on sale August 23

He's back! By 'Chopular' demand!

As seen on TV's 7 Days, NZ Comedy Festival Galas and The Ronnie Johns Half Hour, Heath Franklin brings his award-winning comedy alter ego, Chopper, back to NZ for a return tour of his 2009 smash hit, Harden the F**k Up, New Zealand! - this time with a lot more mongrel and a sh*tload more moustache.

The world’s gone soft since the ANZACs first stood on the beaches of Gallipoli. Global financial crisis, climate change... Sometimes life seems a bit tough, and you just feel like finding a quiet corner and having a cry. Well it's times like these that Chopper thinks you should take off your skirt, grow a moustache and harden the f**k up.

New Zealand needs a new kind of motivational speaker, a new life coach for a new age. It's time Chopper showed you how to walk around with the confidence of a man with a loaded shotgun down his pants,and stick of dynamite in his bum pocket. From the rugby World Cup to hands-free mobiles, mangoes, Switzerland, to anti-smoking ads, even Darth Vader gets a punch in the soft guts by the International Ambassador of Hard

So, if you didn’t catch Chopper last time, or went out for a whizz and missed a bit, this is your chance to catch one of the world’s funniest comics, live and in stabbing distance.
