Daniel Sloss: X

Taking the stage before a live audience at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney, Australia, acclaimed Scottish comedy provocateur Daniel Sloss takes on toxic masculinity in a 85-minute comedy special that is fresh, current and full of deeply funny observations about gender and sexuality.

The first hour plus of the special finds the comedian showcasing his trademark dark humour, touching on subjects such as being godfather to his friend’s 2½ year old daughter; recognizing the humorous aspects of modern-day masculinity; the hilarious and horrible things that happen in a group chat he has with ten other male comedians; problematic old opinions that pop up when he’s drunk and more. In what has become his characteristic sting in the tail, the last section of Daniel Sloss: X sees the show turn on a dime as the comedian gets personal about an experience that changed the way he views his own responsibility in our #MeToo world and the advice he has for other men, culminating in an ending that is as moving and powerful as it is original and funny.

Note: the special contains sensitive and adult content of a sexual nature and unexpurgated Scottish-level swearing
