From: Te Whanganui-a-Tara | Wellington
House of Ick is bursting at the seams with outrageous characters, c*nty musical numbers, visceral messy sketches, and the best cringe you could hope for. Ginge & Minge (Nina Hogg & Megan Connolly) serve as your sickening hosts on the road to hot (but disgusting) enlightenment and show you around the wonderful characters that lurk within its shadows. The doors to the House of Ick are open and you WILL be converted.

“more stimulating than anything playing at the theatre” – The Regional News
“It made me love stupid.” – Audience member
Delight in their hypothetical kissing doctors, believe in their real life shared pelvic floor physiotherapist, and avert your eyes from organic Hastings marketplace solutions. Prepare for German electronica, monster energy-fueled children and 80s power suits. If you enjoy electric chemistry, drag performance, spectacle, second-hand embarrassment, and just delighting in a good time, this show is for you!!!!!!
