Hannah Gadsby's latest solo show, Douglas, has extended its off-Broadway engagement at the Daryl Roth Theatre due to overwhelming ticket demand. It will now run through August 24.

Douglas is described as follows: "Hannah Gadsby took the comedy world and Netflix by storm with her multi-award winning sensation Nanette. Now she returns to New York City, where Nanette played a critically acclaimed, sold out run in 2018, with an all new show, Douglas. And while Nanette was a random barista, Douglas is a very specific dog, and the only thing they have in common is they've inspired Hannah to put pen to paper and turn out a show you couldn't possibly expect."

This off-Broadway run will be the culmination of a US tour that will begin on April 29 in San Francisco after having had its world premiere in Melbourne, Australia, on March 27.
