Tamara Campbell
Performer / Kiki / Director of accents and flexibility
Hi, Tamara here. I believe that the world needs more and better laughter. That laughter should be a force for good. Bringing humans together to share and connect, breaking down the barriers and masks that inhibit our progress as a race. I also believe that it is fundamental that we have bloody good time together as often as possible. I have been fortunate enough to spend my entire career spreading joy and laughter and gently nudging people out of their comfort zones to discover that there is always more. I have done this across the globe in different languages and for varying cultures and the one thing that always stands out, is that people are naturally willing to connect and let the guard down, sometimes they just need an environment that makes that ok.
At Laughter House we wake up every morning to lighten and advance the human race by adding joy, laughter and possibility to horizons that lay ahead. We strive to create unforgettable experiences with impacts that continue long after the event is over. We would love for you and your peeps to be on the receiving end of this fabulousness, by having us help you create the most memorable event ever.
Dave Evans
Actor / Performer / Director of chaos and hilarity
Hi Dave here. At aged 14, I literally ran away to join the circus. Sounds romantic but in reality, circus saved my life! A troubled youth gave way to a life-long passion for the energy, spontaneity and joy found in the ring and then shaped the cornerstone of Laughter House. I believe that performance should be for everyone. No matter how young, old, rich, poor, sophisticated or not. I am eternally grateful for my introduction into the fabulous world of comedy circus and have made it my life’s work to re-gift that chance to others.
