Hannah Gadsby – Douglas.

Australian comedian Hannah Gadsby is brings her new show Douglas to the Bord Gais Energy Theatre. 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 2018 as the first Australian Netflix Original Comedy Special and stopping the comedy world in its tracks.

The overnight success of Hannah Gadsby was more than ten years in the making, with her award-winning stand up shows a sell-out fixture in festivals across Australia and the UK. She played a character called Hannah on the TV series Please Like Me and has hosted three art documentaries, inspired by comedy art lectures she created to accompany collections at major galleries.

“As uproariously funny as it is profoundly furious.” – The New Yorker.
“The laughs of her show are a means to an end, which is, at its core, a ferocious attack on comedy itself.” – The New York Times.

MARS

Abbey Theatre

Four astronauts and an AI software interface are cooped up in the cabin of a space-craft for nine months on a mission to Mars. As they journey across the vast abyss of space, tensions rise, relationships are tested, and seasons of Real Housewives are watched and re-watched. Arriving on the red planet, they confront isolation, sinister ideologies, the prospect of alien life, and a vibe shift toward corporate authoritarianism. MARS is an opera about space colonisation, reactionary futurism, pronatalism, the madness of hustle culture, and the unsettling futures encroaching on our present.
