Hannah Gadsby is one of Australia’s most distinctive comic performers. A story teller par excellence with a joke rate that most dads at a family BBQ would envy, Hannah’s shows are an unforgettable journey through her unusual brain. Her droll delivery, delightful wordplay and heart-breakingly funny, self-deprecating stories have delighted audiences all over the world, drawn critical acclaim and a swag of awards. A regular on our TV screens, Hannah is at her absolute best when she is playing herself, so much so she was cast on Josh Thomas’ internationally acclaimed comedy seriesPlease Like Me where she plays the role of “Hannah” – she is not really stretching her range. Meanwhile, other fancy projects include hosting her own TV art series on the ABC,Hannah Gadsby’s Oz, as well as recording her own BBC Radio 4 series, Hannah Gadsby: Arts Clown. Now in her new show for 2016, “Dogmatic,” Hannah will be attempting to explain the thought processes and woeful life choices that have led her to where she is today. You will laugh. She will remain baffled. Don’t miss out on catching Hannah live at the Brisbane Comedy Festival from Tuesday March 8 to Sunday March 13.

Presented by Brisbane Powerhouse and Token Events. Starring dozens of international and Australian comedians, Brisbane Comedy Festival is a must-see if you need a giggle, chuckle, cackle or rip-snorter of a good time. Brisbane Comedy Festival goes on sale to the public 10:00 am Tuesday December 1.
