Terry Williams

Terry Williams is a veteran internationally in-demand comedian and MC.

He's not crude. He's no clown. Terry Williams is a clever, business-savvy humourist. Terry is equally at home performing in pubs ‘n’ clubs as he is at upmarket conferences and corporate events throughout Australasia.

 PERFORMING HISTORY:

Terry has performed solo shows in several NZ International Comedy Festivals, including ‘Devoted Father & Loving Husband Of 2’ (2004), ‘Killer Comedy (2005), ‘The Grin Reaper’ (2013) and ‘The Hyper Super Mega Ultimate Show’ (2015).

A regular fixture at conferences and corporate events around New Zealand, Australia and Asia-Pacific, blending workplace-appropriate humour with some learning whilst laughing.

Terry’s been performing stand-up since 2001 and has just returned in 2016 from performing in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Singapore.

Terry also regularly teams up with worthwhile causes to organise and perform at fundraiser shows such as this one in Napier for shelterbox after Nepal’s earthquake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myLajWPWXag
