Gerard Dougherty: Hang in There!

After a successful debut in Dunedin Fringe 2024, Gerard Dougherty returns with more brutally honest and hilariously relatable insights.

From the everyday absurdities of corporate life to the struggles of staying afloat in his thirties, Gerard’s second stand-up show dives into the chaos with sharp humor and a fresh perspective. Expect self-sabotage, quirky parenting tips, and a candid look at why being an adult isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
