Amos Gill's THE PURSUIT OF HAPPY(ISH) Opens at SoHo Playhouse

Amos Gill's The Pursuit of Happy(ish) will open Saturday, November 30th as part of SoHo Playhouse's 2024 International Fringe Encore Comedy Series. The show runs Off-Broadway through December 8.

An Australian immigrant wrestles with the pursuit of happiness, in the divided states of America. An outsider's love story with The American Project.

SoHo Playhouse is located at 15 Vandam Street in New York City. Tickets are $31 - $39. Student tickets are $20 (with valid ID) at the box office on the day of the show on a space availability basis.

Award-winning comedian and international rising star Amos Gill is back with another boundary-pushing hour of hilarious, challenging and sometimes caustic stand-up. Smart, fearless and always bitingly funny, Amos has conquered Australia's comedy scene, challenging audiences to think and taking them to the edge. Nothing is off-limits for Amos. Expertly skewering absolutely everyone, he's gained a legion of fans around the world touring with Jim Jefferies, including a sell-out crowd at New York's iconic Madison Square Garden. https://moretalent.com.au/artists/amos-gill
