Hens' Teeth
Hens' Teeth Women's Comedy Company is a woman-only comedy troupe based in Wellington. Founded in 1988 by Kate JasonSmith it went on to perform regularly over 13 years. The format was a series of comedy sketches held together by a compere. In 1996 they completed a tour of the South island, which was filmed for a documentary.
The company had a revival in 2017 at Circa Theatre's WTF! Festival, and then in December 2020 presented the sold-out season The Older the Better, featuring the talents of three 90-year-old performers.
