Dinner Entertainment Te Radar With a string of awards to his name and one of the country 's most recognisable hairstyles, Te Radar is one of the country's bestloved comedians and media personalities.  Under his trademark strawberry -blond mop lurks an astute mind that has created award-winning comedy shows, documentariesand TV programmes for the past two decades. Te Radar (real name Andrew Lumsden) discovered his talent for making people laugh as a law student. He ditched law (too much work )and took up drama (fewer lectures). Law's loss was the punter's gain. Witty, friendly and well-informed, Te Radar is a sought -after speaker, MC and debater, and has hosted events ranging from the Red Bull Trolley Grand Prix to Water NZ's annual Stormwater Conference and the Axis Awards for the Communications Agencies Association of New Zealand (CAANZ). A self –titled 'opinionist' he is also a political and current affairs junkie, Te Radar is a regular on National Radio's Nine to Noon show, providing a satirical review of the week and has won two Qantas Media awards for his columns in the New Zealand Herald. Combining his wacky sense of humour with his love of times past he 's written and is now performing Eating The Dog, a multiaward -winning live showcase of New Zealand's lesser-known historical characters. No coward when it comes to confrontation, Te Radar has dodged bullets in East Timor at the height of the conflict to produce an award -winning documentary, and faced up to gun-toting soldiers in the Middle East before interviewing the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. And he turned Spartan for his top- rating series Off the Radar, where he camped out in a field for ten months to experiment with living off the land. He returned to the screen and smaller-scale sustainability in Radar's Patch, which won a Qantas award for Best Information /Lifestyle Programme, and has just finished production on a new series, Global Radar, which looks at New Zealand 's sustainability issues in a global context. When he 's not being a war correspondent or entertaining the masses, Te Radar represents local omedians on the New Zealand Comedy Trust board, directs theatre, and has written a book, Off The Radar, based on his hugely successful television show and which is being adapted for radio. His next TV project will take him into the Pacific, where he will discover New Zealand's connections with Pacific nations and explore the challenges these small nations face. He will then strut his stuff for the Auckland Theatre Company as the loathsome Mr Twit for their production of Roald Dahl 's hilarious book The Twits. After that he would quite like to have a rest between jobs that is. The dinner entertainment is kindly sponsored by
