[Stand up comedy] Interview: Dane Simpson

[canceru]

 

Dane Simpson didn’t believe he could be a stand-up comedian until someone literally pushed him on stage to perform against his will.

“My mob come from Walgett, which is outback New South Wales, and I used to travel up there to see my dad every school holidays. In Walgett, if you tell the funniest yarn, you win,” the Gamilaraay comic says. 

“You don’t let the truth get in the way of a good yarn. You go for whatever’s going to make people laugh the hardest. And I just grew up doing that. I didn’t know that you could do stand-up comedy for a living. It’s just how we lived life and connected.”
