Dane Hiser in "Excuse me, your authentic self is showing"
Event description
Comedian Dane Hiser presents -
A further work in progress show from a work in progress man:
"Excuse me, your authentic self is showing"
In his 20’s, diagnoses of depression, anxiety and OCD came onto the scene, and treatment was applied to keep it (relatively) at bay.
Cut to 20 years later, and a shock discovery was made - submerging fundraising manager, marketer, communicator, comedian, comedy promoter, room runner, storyteller and actor Dane Hiser into a “not great” 5 years.
After a whirlwind of the lowest of lows, smatterings of highs, endless appointments and tests, total confidence destruction...oh and a GLOBAL PANDEMIC (famously not best mixed with OCD), a frantic search for answers and almost every potential remedy under the sun - Dane finds himself somehow close(ish) to finally accepting and loving (yuk!) his true self and identifying something at least resembling purpose.
And it only took 46 years.
Nice and famous people saying nice things:
“Dane Hiser is as hilarious as he is original. F*%k, he made me laugh,” Fiona O’Loughlin.
"When I first met Dane, I thought to myself "he'll never be funny", then BAM!!! Like a superhero out of a phone booth…” Tommy Dean.
“Flaunting one's foibles is part and parcel with being a stand-up comedian, but Dane Hiser manages to highlight his in a refreshing and compelling manner,” Nyssa Packham, Weekend Notes.
