Hannah Gadsby - Nanette poster

There’s no precedent for what Hannah Gadsby did in her show #Nanette - now a #Netflix sensation. It is not merely a standup comedy, it’s a “mass bloodletting”. In the show Hannah opens up about being sexually abused and raped, she deconstructs misogyny and her own internalized homophobia. And then she invites people see our shared humanity instead of focusing on our differences. “Normal” versus “different” is a formula that only leads to dehumanisation and abuse.
