Daniel Sloss - NOW
NOW is the stunning new show from Scotland’s internationally acclaimed and award-winning stand-up.
Star of TV’s ‘Conan’ (a record seven appearances), to-date Daniel has performed nine sell-out Edinburgh Fringe’s, two solo off-Broadway seasons, released a DVD, given a ‘Tedx’ Talk (aged 19) and tours extensively to rave reviews throughout Australasia, USA, UK and Europe.
"NOW", what’s next...?
In August 2008, aged just 17, Daniel became one of the youngest-ever finalists in the UK’s premiere comedy competition So You Think You’re Funny? as well as performing on a double-bill show at his first Edinburgh fringe, Life in 2D. Since then he has brought a new solo show to the fringe every year - and sold it out. He premiered his first hour-long show, Teenage Kicks, in 2009, sold every seat and transferred to make his London debut, becoming the youngest-ever stand-up to perform solo both at the prestigious Soho Theatre and in the West End. In 2010 & 2011 his shows My Generation and The Joker were both smash-hits, each selling out full runs in 400 seat venues. The Joker subsequently played to great acclaim across the UK in a 50-date tour produced by Live Nation after they took him on as their youngest solo comedy client. His 2012 The Show and 2013‘s Stand-Upeach sold out their full festival runs at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC), with subsequent 50+ date tours all over the UK. 2014’s Really...?! and 2015’s show DANIEL SLOSS: DARK did the same, each premiering in Edinburgh (EICC), then extensively touring the UK, including a season in London and being performed across over 16+ countries in Europe and Australia including seasons at Sydney, Melbourne, New Zealand, the Perth Comedy Festivals. Daniel has twice been a featured solo artist at Montreal’s Just For Laughs comedy festival (2012 and 2016), performed in Hyde Park for Barclaycard’s British Summertime Festival and in addition to the Australian festivals, also regularly appears at a host of other international arts events including Glastonbury, Latitude, Altitude, San Francisco’s Sketchfest and LA’s Riot. In February 2016 DANIEL SLOSS: DARK transferred to New York for an off-Broadway season at Soho Playhouse which saw Daniel featured on the front page of the prestigious New York Times Arts section. The same year saw him make his fifth and then a record-breaking sixth appearance on US TV’s Conan and sell out more shows in Los Angeles, before launching his new show, Daniel Sloss: SO? - the 2016 solo show and his sequel to DANIEL SLOSS: DARK
What the press have said about Daniel Sloss:
‘An endearingly unabashed blend of arrogance, awkwardness and self-effacing anecdotes delivered with precision timing, perfectly-placed silence and unfettered confidence... Nothing is off limits...Sloss skilfully weaves sensitive subject matter into a hilarious tapestry of politically incorrect and sexually inappropriate zingers... his humour intelligently and ironically calling out the hypocrisy of human nature.’★★★★(Herald Sun, Australia)
‘Dirty, sweet and clever’(New York Times)‘Deliciously dark stand-up’★★★★ (Mail on Sunday)
‘Irreverent wit... devastating!’ (Advertiser, Australia) ‘Stunningly poignant... deeply dark comedic style... achingly funny’★★★★ ½ (Theatre People)
‘Brilliantly dark...‘Razor-sharp’(Sunday Times)‘Dazzling wit... Unstoppable!’ (Telegraph) ‘Funny, intelligent and charming’★★★★(Edinburgh Evening News)
‘Genuinely funny!’ (Time Out, London) ‘Brutal observational humor’(Time Out, New York)‘Sloss is a festival highlight. See him’★★★★½ (Age, Australia)
