Returning with An Evening with Fran Lebowitz, the star of Martin Scorsese's hit Netflix documentary series Pretend It's a City unleashes her chain-smoking, coffee-drinking New Yorker bite on a world falling ever more deeply into depravity, sucked along in the wake of Trump 2.0.
Weaving a cautionary tale for our society, and never short of an opinion—from politicians to AI and people who walk too slowly to billionaires—Fran has for decades lambasted the abhorrent and ridiculous with wit and wisdom in equal measure.
Come for the candour, stay for the cynicism – and leave vastly more entertained.
Proudly part of the Auckland Council whānau
