Hannah Gadsby Live at the Soho Theatre

14th November 2011

Hannah doesn’t smile much and she laughs even less. For a comedian that’s like being a transformer that doesn’t fancy driving. She hates talking and is not much chop when it comes to listening. She is a rock, an island, and a lone ranger. Mrs Chuckles is a tale of mild success and utter failure told in the manner of vague indifference and total incredulity. Don’t let Hannah’s tendency to take herself too seriously or her inability to communicate effectively in social situations deter you. There is great pleasure to be had in laughing at her. Don’t miss this hit show from one of Australia’s funniest comics.And as if you needed proof, people have been doing exactly that in her sell out Festival shows from Auckland to Kilkenny and Hobart to Edinburgh. Her dry sharp wit weaved into her understated yet compelling personal stories has made her a definite favourite amongst punters, critics and fellow comedians since she first hit the comedy circuit four short years ago. Not just a talent on the stage, Hannah is currently writing her first book for Allen & Unwin based on her long and varied medical history and she graces Australian small screens as the offsider to Adam Hills in his chat show, Adam Hills in Gordon St Tonight.
