Carr has built his reputation on boundary-pushing material that tends to divide audiences. His dark brand of comedy isn’t for everyone – but for those who enjoy his style, the new show promises to deliver exactly what they’re looking for.

His previous tour, Terribly Funny, reportedly drew over 1.2 million people across 45 countries, potentially making it the biggest international stand-up tour ever staged.

Tickets for all Australian shows go on sale Monday 7 April at 2pm. The extensive tour begins in Caloundra and concludes at Melbourne’s John Cain Arena on 6 May, covering almost every corner of Australia.
