Comedy sketch show starring Billy T James, with co-star Peter Rowley.
Billy T and Me
Comedian and Billy T James' co-writer and fall guy Peter Rowley presents an audio-visual stage show celebrating his prolific association with the Kiwiana legend. Peter and Billy's collaborative approach to comedy resulted in such iconic sketches as Capt Cook, Jock Cousteau, Turangi Vice and many more.
Follow Peter's journey with Billy T from 1977's "A Week of It" through "McPhail & Gadsby", culminating in the legendary Billy T James Show. Directed by Ian Mune (Came a Hot Friday) and produced by Murray Francis (The World's Fastest Indian), Billy T & Me is a not-to-be-missed glimpse into the comedy of Aotearoa.
