Daniel Sloss
Scotland’s international comedy superstar, Daniel Sloss, is bringing his eagerly anticipated 12th solo show, Can’t, across Australia in April 2023.
Sloss is firmly established as one of the world’s most significant and successful touring stand-ups of all time. His new show, Can’t, follows on from his previous ground-breaking smash hits including HUBRiS (the biggest solo comedy tour for most of 2021, as reported in Pollstar), and X, his acclaimed tour de force about sexual assault.
Sloss is renowned for his unique style of tackling diverse and sometimes uncomfortable material captured from his own experiences including battling with his own masculinity, relationship breakdowns and death. But mostly he writes cracking jokes and tells hilarious stories.
Presented by Century & MZA
The AgeHilarious… Devastatingly intelligent… Sloss is a festival highlight. See him.
