The New Messiah Of Godzone is a self-made failure expert and she's here to take on orthodox religion,

the patriarchy and colonisation all in one go with this musical comedy gem!

Jaqi Taimana is an imperfection guru with more than one intergalactic failure story to tell well and sell

even weller. It's time to come first for a change!

Taking up the comedy reins again after 21 years of solo-parenting twins, and 13 years of full-time early

childhood teaching, Jaqi is now hosting packed-out shows in Raglan, Te Awamutu, Whakatāne,

Tauranga, Auckland and Hamilton and was nominated for Best Producer in the 2023 NZ Comedy Guild

Awards. This highly engaging hour-long banquet of clever, hilarious songs and lethal stand-up comedy

takes a comical, feminist look at first-hand failure and coming second in a success-obsessed world.

You’ll want to bear witness to this miraculous spiritual event and be part of the making of a unique Kiwi

legend, one piece of screwed-up A4 paper at a time!

"Funny and warm, Jaqi is a comic singer/songwriter with unique stories to tell." Michele A'Court

"Very funny – my pick for a bright future in comedy.” Brendhan Lovegrove
