Hannah Gadsby: Nanette brilliantly moves modern comedy into nakedly honest new territory, pivoting from dry humor to raw, powerful storytelling.

When Gadsby wrenches out her pain on stage, she reveals her strength, rage, and yes, winning humor. Nov 20, 2018 | Full Review…

Gadsby is tired of censoring her own pain for the sake of making audiences feel comfortable. Nanette is a testament to this. It's time to make audiences feel uncomfortable in order to wake them up. Sep 24, 2018 | Full Review…

I am also exactly who this special is for. For Gadsby's fury is directed at people like me with laser-like acumen, humor and sobering grace. Aug 2, 2018 | Full Review…

Gadsby explains how comedy works, how tension is broken to bring relief. By the end, there is no relief for the audience. But perhaps there is some for Gadsby. After years of telling jokes, she is finally telling her story. Jul 18, 2018 | Full Review…

When you take the anti-irony train all the way to the end of the line, one place you can end up is Nanette. Jul 18, 2018 | Full Review…

She also claps back against the idols of her early life, men like Louis C.K. who've now become the problem. In other words, Gadsby's not holding any punches with this one. Dec 28, 2018 | Full Review…

What follows is a tour de force of comedy as in-your-face truth-telling. And it moves well beyond the unwritten rules of the laugh-a-minute, observational and adolescent-inflected stand-up that has long dominated the form. Sep 24, 2018 | Rating: 4.5/5 | Full Review…

It becomes so much more than stand-up... Very sophisticated, and something that I wasn't expecting. Sep 13, 2018 | Full Review…

It's not a repudiation of history, but it is a reminder that history is over and that the strategies that served us well at one time may not be appropriate today. Jul 27, 2018 | Full Review…
