Comedian and actor Vir Das has hit the global comedy mega-leagues thanks to his boundless comedic talent, wildly successful world tours and is bringing his new show to Australia! 

A night of audacious humour and humility!

Comedian and actor Vir Das has achieved worldwide comedic acclaim through his immense talent, successful global tours, and four outstanding Netflix specials. His latest release, "Landing," has received accolades for its unique perspective on today's fascination with "punching up" and "cancel culture." Decider lauds it as "refreshingly different," while Paste Magazine praises Das's ability to deliver critiques with breathtaking finesse. The special was recorded in New York City after a triumphant run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where The New York Times proclaimed him the quintessential global stand-up artist. Vir's third Netflix special, "Vir Das: For India," secured an International Emmy nomination for "Best Comedy" in 2021, cementing his status as a comedy powerhouse.
