Hannah Gadsby, the acclaimed Australian comedian known for their groundbreaking Netflix special Nanette, is set to bring their latest stand-up show, WOOF!, to New York City this fall. Following successful runs in Australia and across the United States, Gadsby is gearing up to share their worries, wisdom, and whimsy with audiences in the Big Apple.
In a recent statement, Gadsby expressed their unique approach to this new show, opting for a nostalgic journey rather than a traditional career progression. The comedian humorously acknowledged the current state of the world, hinting at a sense of impending doom that has influenced their decision to revisit familiar territories like the Edinburgh Fringe and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
WOOF! represents Gadsby's return to the New York City stage after the immense success of Nanette in 2018, followed by Douglas in 2019 and Body of Work in 2022. Directed by Jenney Shamash and produced by Mike Lavoie and Carlee Briglia, the show promises to be a standout performance in Gadsby's already impressive repertoire.
The four-week run of WOOF! at the Abrons Arts Center is scheduled to kick off on September 27, with an official opening night on October 6. Audiences can catch Gadsby's latest show until October 20, offering a unique blend of humor, introspection, and storytelling that has become synonymous with the comedian's style.
