Since stopping the comedy world in its tracks with their 2018 Netflix special, "Nanette," Hannah Gadsby has managed to stay pretty busy.
They have done two more solo stand up shows which toured the world – playing to sold out houses across the US, Australia and Europe – filling the Sydney Opera House, the Royal Festival Hall, the Kennedy Centre, the London Palladium and the Opera House at BAM.
"Douglas" launched on Netflix in 2020 and their third Netflix special launched in 2023 as "Something Special."
They also squeezed in hosting a gala at the Montreal Just For Laughs comedy festival, launched a New York Times Best Selling Memoir, Ten Steps To Nanette in more than ten languages and chatted with Colbert and Fallon amongst many others.
In 2023 Gadsby co-curated an exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum, featuring works from the Musee Picasso National Paris and works from the Brooklyn Museum’s Feminist Art Collection. This is part of a global celebration marking fifty years since Picasso’s death. Gadsby’s views on Picasso and the conflation of misogyny and genius will be on display alongside the works.
Gadsby won an Emmy for Nanette. They also picked up a Peabody and an AACTA Award. Gadsby also won the most outstanding show awards at both the Melbourne Comedy Festival and Edinburgh Fringe.
