Comedian Hanna Gadsby is performing in Toronto next year

Australian comedian Hannah Gadsby — known for her riveting comedy special Nanette — will be performing in Toronto for the first time ever next year.

Gadsby took home top prizes for Nanette at the Melbourne and Edinburgh comedy festivals before dropping it as a Netflix special last year. Nanette has left a lasting impression on audiences and started a global conversation about comedy and social commentary that continues today.

Now, Gadsby is using voice she found with Nanette in her new show Douglas. 

The show had its world premiere in Melbourne in March 2019, before embarking on tours in the US and UK.

Gadsby will perform Douglas in Toronto at Roy Thompson Hall on February 29, 2020.

Tickets go on sale on Friday, November 1 at 10 am on Ticketmaster.
