Driving me crazy is a comedy-duo show from married couple and comedians Mo Munn and Q Potts. It is part of the NZ Fringe Festival: https://tickets.fringe.co.nz/event/446:8274/
The show is on 13 Feb and 14 Feb at 7.30pm – at the Fringe Bar. Tickets are $25 for general admission.
Driving me crazy is a no-brakes comedy collision starring real-life married comedy couple Mo Munn and Q Potts — and yes, they’re still together… somehow.
This fast-paced, unfiltered blend of stand-up and sketch dives head-on into the chaos of co-piloting a life — and a car — with your partner. From white-knuckled driving lessons to petty habits that spark full-blown meltdowns, nothing is sacred. Refusing to drive a manual? Refusing to wipe the bench properly? Buckle up, because it’s all going under the microscope.
With razor-sharp wit, undeniable chemistry, and just the right amount of road rage, Driving Me Crazy swerves through the hilarious potholes of modern relationships — where love, frustration, and GPS miscommunications collide.
Expect rapid-fire banter, brutally relatable stories, and sketches that hit a little too close to home. Mo and Q are living proof that marriage is messy, weird, and completely worth mocking on stage.
Perfect for date night, mate night, or when you just need to laugh at someone else’s dysfunction for once — Driving Me Crazy is a comedic car crash you’ll be glad you didn’t miss this Valentine’s weekend!
Mo Munn is a multi-award-winning comedian, recently named Best Newcomer at the 2025 NZ International Comedy Festival. Q Potts is a rising star on the scene, and a 2025 Wellington Raw Comedy Quest Finalist.
Relationships don’t come with a manual. But this show? It’s the next best thing.

Review by John Smythe 14th Feb 2026
The Fringe Bar stage is adorned with what looks like a king-sized bed, but do bedclothes cover it or is it draped with a dust cover like unused furniture in a deserted house? Or is it covering a precious car? Given the title – Driving Me Crazy – both scenarios are possible.
Mo Munn and Q (Quentin) Potts make a spectacular entrance that leaves Q breathless, which is OK because Mo is the more mouthy in this volatile relationship. Chalk and cheese, they are; Jack and Jill Sprat; fire and water. So do opposites attract in this relationship? We’re here to find out.
And now that they see us, Mo and Q are not sure this is such a good idea. Are they even married? They’ve been together for 12 years and … Hey, whatever it is, it’s theirs to make or break.
Deceptively random and chaotic, replete with apparently spontaneous reactions and quips, Driving Me Crazy turns out to have a coherent destination involving their car. En route, boundaries, Valentine’s Day, chicken nuggets, karaoke nights and bathroom propositions, basketball and sizes of their feet are hilariously traversed. Mo has a special talent for making tacky jokes sound almost tasteful. Q’s ‘straight man’ persona keeps Mo and their show grounded and on track.
When Mo’s driving ability is questioned, the drapes are whisked away and we are treated to three Driving Lesson sketches, with Q and Mo alternating driver/instructor roles. Surprising David Bowie references add to the chaos.
We also learn how buying a car is like a first date. Hand positions on the steering wheel, what may or may not be left on the dashboard and ‘the hierarchy of commitment’ all come under scrutiny. Despite all that, their car is for sale, so we get the pitch and celebrity endorsements to boot.
Q is a builder and Mo is an Office Manager. But after 12 years together, does each know what the other actually does at work? They role-play each other to test and tease out their relative perceptions.
“You’re really good at …” and “I’m really good at …” exchanges lead to “You can be so …” and “Why do you always …?” accusations and it all escalates to a point where the room goes very silent as people hear phrases they have either uttered or been subjected to, spat out with genuine acrimony.
How do they come back from this? You’ll have to see it to find out (just one more show tonight). Driving Me Crazy takes us on a hilarious and hair-raising ride and has the Fringe Bar buzzing.
