Most comics who move their families across the world try to blend in. Solari leaned the opposite way, staging an intensely pink expat variety hour filled with original songs, local drag performers, and cameos from her relatives.

Filmed at the Wunderbar in Lyttelton, New Zealand, the set covers her move from Los Angeles to a rural Canterbury harbor town alongside her Kiwi husband, Hamish Dean, and their two daughters. Her husband’s claim to fame is being a competitive Settlers of Catan world champion, which Solari uses as fuel for family ribbing alongside stage appearances from the kids and her mother-in-law.

The 45-minute taping was released by Comedy Dynamics in early 2025. It strays far from standard club stand-up, breaking up domestic culture-shock stories with live musical numbers like “Pink Pink Pink.”
