Sammy Petersen - Why The Long Face

Presented at Mousetrap Comedy Club

When starting out in standup at the age of 19, Sammy Petersen was asked to write a book from a well known publisher titled ‘Why The Long Face: the story of a boy who tried to make people laugh when he can't even smile himself.’

This was not his idea and he never did it but, after over a decade, he can’t stop thinking about it.

This is a debut solo show from the host of ‘Confessions’ about self-worth, heartbreak and if he does in fact look a little bit like a horse.

“A great storyteller and the most comedy adjacent person I’ve ever met.” Wil Anderson  

‘A very funny human.’ - Missy Higgins
