Ginge & Minge (Nina Hogg and Megan Connolly) are a high-energy sketch comedy duo from Pōneke | Wellington, NZ. They've spent the last five years touring Australasia together with their shows Jez & Jace, Redemption, Fame or Die and LAYOVER. The pair recently won 'Comic Originality' in the NZ Comedy Guild Awards 2025, Best Show at the Wellington Comedy Awards 2026 and 'Spectacular Organised Chaos' at the NZ Fringe Festival 2025. However, Ginge & Minge cite their most important achievement as the fact they still like each other.
