James Roque: MANO PO
Thursday 8th October 2026, 6:30pm to 7:30pm - The Bill Murray
Getting older can be confronting. Especially when your culture can't stop reminding you.
In Filipino tradition, a mano po is a gesture where an elder places their hand on a younger person’s forehead to offer a blessing. It’s a sweet, respectful custom… unless you’re the one suddenly expected to be the “elder.”
In 2025, award winning Filipino-Kiwi comedian James Roque received his first request for a 'mano po' from a teenager, which sent him spiralling into a full blown existential crisis. Has he really done all he can to earn the right to give a ""mano po""?
A show about wrestling with getting older, finding solace from unexpected places and the funny stories that happen along the way. A new hour from the Kiwi-Pinoy Comedy Boy, served with his signature sweet-and-salty storytelling.
6:00 PM - Doors open
