Hanna’s solo fall tour is a combination of humor, introspection, and empowerment. Fans can expect the ticket sales to fly off the shelves as Gadsby (known for both raw honesty and uproarious wit) takes storytelling prowess to new heights.
Gadsby has been a comedian for more than a decade but it was 2018, when the world took notice. The ground-breaking comedy special Nanette launched on Netflix and stopped the comedy world in its tracks. This was followed up with Hanna performing stand-up comedy shows touring the world and selling out houses across the USA, Australia and Europe, including the Sydney Opera House, the Royal Festival Hall, the Kennedy Centre, the London Palladium and the Opera House at BAM.
First skyrocketing to fame with Nanette (which not only showcased sharp comedic insights but also addressed profound themes of identity, trauma, and the societal narratives surrounding them), Hanna earned an Emmy, a Peabody, an Australian Academy Award, and the Most Outstanding Show awards at both the Melbourne Comedy Festival and Edinburgh Fringe. A unique blend of humor and vulnerability has earned not just critical acclaim, but helped land Hanna a second Netflix special, Douglas (2020) a third special, Something Special (2023) and now a fourth, Hanna Gadsby’s Gender Agenda (2024).

With content often revolving around the complexities of sexuality and experiences with men, infusing humor with poignant reflections, Hanna invites audiences to examine the absurdities of life while revealing personal struggles, including a harrowing experience where she was assaulted by a man. “There is nothing stronger than a broken woman who has rebuilt herself.” Hannah Gadsby declared in the stage show, Nanette. Rather than allowing this moment to define life, Gadsby emerged stronger, showcasing resilience that inspires many to embrace their truths and vulnerabilities.
Gadsby fans adore the live shows which blend witty storytelling and observations about life, queerness and the absurdity of everyday situations. Gadsby manages to turn even the grayest topics into laugh-out-loud moments, leaving us all looking at the world through a slightly more humorous lens. With comedic narratives that do not shy away from discussing sexuality; yet celebrate it, Hanna is helping pave the way for other talented LGBTQ+ comedians, and underrepresented persons, ensuring that the comedy world is more inclusive and diverse for all.
In addition to live performances, Gadsby has expanded reach engaging podcast listeners while furthering the exploration of various themes and often encourages laughter through storytelling. Their comedic style continues to touch hearts, tickle funny bones and grow audiences around the globe. With hilarious quotes like, “I love (the word) YA’LL! Because YA’LL is… THE BEST!, MOST INCLUSIVE!… second-person…, plural…, pronoun…. in the English-speaking world!” (from: Douglass – 2020).
