PROFILE

Harriet Moir

Harriet MOIR

Excellent comedy export from Dunedin

Frank, fresh and f#$king talented, Harriet takes us on a journey through solo parenting, dating (again), feminism, body positivity and just whatever else she feels inclined to over share about. 

She lives in Dunedin with her two daughters and their ginger pussy, where she works as a comedian, writer, wedding and funeral celebrant, MC, actor, singer, writer and producer. Mercifully not all at the same time.

She regularly produces comedy shows around the South Island and she has two award winning solo comedy shows under her belt. And she could get up at 5am every morning to write a new one if she just tried a bit harder. 

Most recently, Harriet produced Stand Up, Stand Out - Comedy School for Teens at the Dunedin Fringe Festival. The school won the hearts of audiences, a couple of awards and was nominated for Best in Fringe.

She is professional, quick witted and always delivers with empathy and humour in equal measure.
