Dane Simpson was a Deadly Funny national finalist in 2015; and since then, it has been a fast-rising trajectory for this Wagga-based comedian with a whirlwind of corporate gigs, tours, and festival runs.
Now he can also claim the title of ‘international comedian’ after recently performing for the first time at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
With all his successes Simpson is still proud to call Wagga home and excited to perform for local crowds at the Civic Theatre this weekend.
“It feels so strange to be referring to myself as an international star, but yeah, I guess it’s true,” Simpson said.
“Edinburgh Fringe is a huge festival; performers take over the whole city and it’s just a whole lot of fun spanning almost a month, but it’s always good to come home to Aussie audiences.”
