About this show

Hannah Gadsby has some big ideas, and they'd like to share them with you. Ideally, they'd like to share them in the form of a new show, but first thing's first: a work in progress. You can expect jokes, stories, thoughts and ponderances. Hannah isn't ready to call it a show just yet... but they're getting there. Join them for the process? It will most certainly be a very good time.
