Just For Laughs Live: Hannah Gadsby: Douglas

Hannah Gadsby’s tenth solo show was Nanette. It did alright. Nanette took out the top prizes at the Melbourne and Edinburgh festivals before sitting down in New York and dropping a Netflix special last year that started a global conversation that continues today. It even earned Hannah an Emmy and a Peabody.

While Nanette was a random barista, Douglas is a very specific Dog, and the only thing they have in common is they’ve inspired Hannah to put pen to paper and turn out a show you couldn’t possibly expect. Hannah found her voice with Nanette and with Douglas she’s using it.

Tasmania’s own Hannah Gadsby has come to the world’s attention through her multi-award winning stand up show Nanette which played to sold out houses across Australia, London, Edinburgh, New York and Los Angeles before launching on Netflix in June as the first Australian Netflix Original Comedy Special and stopping the comedy world in its tracks.
