Gemma vs the Normal Worms

by Pachali Brewster | Part of NZ Fringe 2026

15 Episodes of beautifully produced, highly infectious audio comedy, inchworming into a mind near you....

Giant space worms are invading Earth, and their wormy hive-minds are driving people Normal!

To save humanity from all that is conventional, amorously awkward Gemma and loveable loafer Fabblestitch must take the ultimate trip: a kaleidoscopic adventure deep into the bowels of the Lost Worm Galaxy - where the normal rules don't apply, but the Normal Worms do...

Gemma vs The Normal Worms is about holding your own when you're different, deviant, and diverging from the conventional, in a crazy world where everyone must submit to The Normal Thing to Do.

Warning: Contains 420% references to sex, drugs, & psychedelic worms.

4 hours and 20 minutes of raunchy, whimsical fantasy, inspired by Monty Python's Flying Circus, and the nostalgic, old-timey radio storytelling of Spike Milligan's BadJelly the Witch.

Cosy up with your fav snacks and your best bud(s) and get ready to laugh your ass off!

All episodes on demand for FREE in a charming audio installation at on the ground floor of the Hannah.

Featuring headphones and craft supplies — stop by anytime to cosy down, doodle a worm, and allow yourself to inch deep into the bowels of the Lost Worm Galaxy...
