Early life
Correos's parents immigrated to Christchurch in the 1980s from the Philippines; he grew up in Woolston.[2]
During his teens, Correos trained as a weightlifter and represented New Zealand at several international events, and won his weight division at the 2012 Junior Oceania Championships.[3] He narrowly missed out for qualification for the 2014 Commonwealth Games, where a broken ankle ended his sporting career.[2]
Wishing to perform in musical theatre, Correos attended a two-year drama course at Hagley College, after which he applied to a broadcasting school but was denied entry. He became interested in comedy and started performing arts at Hagley Theatre Company. His friend created a variety show called Monday Night Magic for artists who had no space to perform after the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. Correos started performing stand-up alongside musicians and street performers, and began learning how to write comedy.[2]
He moved to Auckland in 2014 where he pursued a comedy career.
Career
Correos won the Billy T Award in 2016,[4] and the Comic Originality award at the 2015 Comedy Guild Awards. He first performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2017 with Matt Stellingwerf, their show entitled Chaos & Order.[5] He returned to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 2018 with a new show titled The Correos Effect, and at a later date also performed it at the Fringe Festivals in Dunedin, Auckland and Adelaide.[6] In 2019, he performed his show Better Than I Was The Last Time at Fringe.[7]
Correos' television credits include appearances as a panelist on 7 Days (on which he was also a writer), The Project and Taskmaster NZ season two [8] and since then, David has also become a writer for Taskmaster NZ.
Correos also appears in videos by sketch comedy group Viva La Dirt League.
