The wait is finally over! The highly anticipated (and carefully kept under wraps) international headliner for the first-ever edition of the Laughing Dead is here and it’s none other than Daniel Sloss! The internationally acclaimed Scottish comedian is finally making his way to India after hinting at it last year.

After two smash-hit Netflix specials (Dark and Jigsaw), selling out eight New York solo off-Broadway seasons, appearing in U.S. TV’s Conan ten times, breaking box office records at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and touring over 54 countries, Scottish comedy superstar and writer Daniel Sloss is all set to make his India debut of his world tour, Daniel Sloss: CAN’T. His manager and best friend Kai Humphries will be his guest act on the tour, who has also opened for the likes of Doug Stanhope, Jim Jefferies and Steve-O.

Sloss will perform across 3 cities in India starting with Bengaluru on 16 March (Chowdiah Memorial Hall), New Delhi on 17 March (Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium) with his final act in Mumbai on 18 March (Mehboob Studios) at Laughing Dead, a star-studded showcase of the biggest, baddest and silliest voices in Indian comedy, produced by DeadAnt Media in association with BookMyShow as the official and exclusive ticketing partner.

Commenting on his first-ever India outing for his tour, Daniel Sloss said, “I’ve wanted to perform in India for a long time and I’m thrilled to finally get the opportunity. It’s been a long time coming but now it’s here; Indian fans on my social media can stop finally pestering me to come! I look forward to seeing you all very soon and to being part of India’s very first Laughing Dead Comedy Festival. See you on March 16th, 17th and 18th!”

The youngest comedian to perform a solo season in London’s West End, at the age of 19, Sloss is known for his dark humour-laced punch lines that can make him uncomfortably hilarious. Sloss’ previous groundbreaking and hugely successful shows include HUBRiS (the biggest global comedy show for most of 2021 as reported by Pollstar) and the acclaimed, ground-breaking X, which played a staggering 300 performances worldwide spanning the United Kingdom, North America, Australia, Hong Kong Japan amongst others selling out additional seasons in New York and Los Angeles.

Apart from Daniel Sloss, comedians at the festival will include the who’s who of stand-up comedy performers in India, including Aditi Mittal, Amit Tandon, Varun Thakur, Daniel Fernandes, Neeti Palta, Kunal Rao, Shreeja Chaturvedi, Ashish Shakya, Sorabh Pant, Rohan Joshi, Atul Khatri, Anirban Dasgupta, Varun Grover, Prashasti Singh, Abhishek Upmanyu and Anubhav Singh Bassi amongst others. The festival will also see several content creators and stars in the humour space including Mallika Dua, Kusha Kapila, Sakshi Shivdasani and Srishti Dixit.

DeadAnt along with BookMyShow, the official and exclusive ticketing partner will roll out the 2-day indoor comedy extravaganza, Laughing Dead Comedy Festival that brings together some of best and biggest comedians under one roof.

Tickets for Daniel Sloss: CAN’T India Tour along with the Laughing Dead Comedy Festival are now live exclusively on BookMyShow.
