Known as Australia’s King of dark humour, comedian Julian Woods is hitting the road this month on his highly anticipated Cancel Me World Tour.
Gaining an online fanbase with his viral Dark Jokes series, Woods embarked on the highly successful Make Dark Humour Great Again Tour, performing to packed crowds across the country.
Now he’s about to push the boundaries of comedy even further with his new show, Cancel Me, which sees Woods take aim at everyone and anything, with the press release stating: “This isn't just stand-up; it's a battle cry for the freedom to joke about whatever the hell he wants, no matter who gets triggered.
The Australian leg of Woods’ Cancel Me World Tour begins in Sydney at Arcade on Friday 17 October. Dates follow at Melbourne’s Comics Lounge on Friday 24 October, Brisbane’s Old Museum on Saturday 25 October, Newcastle’s Islington Barracks Hotel on Saturday 1 November, Adelaide’s The Austral on Friday 7 November and Perth’s Royale Theatre on Saturday 8 November.

Brisbane’s Julian Woods is certainly not for the faint of heart, with the stand-up gaining a reputation for crossing the line most comics won’t even go near.
His no-holds-barred approach to stand-up, which often results in raw, unfiltered chaos at his live shows, has seen Woods gain over 1.3 million followers across social media platforms.
Woods promises fans Cancel Me is “even darker, bolder, and more twisted than before,” with fans urged to grab tickets asap as they are selling fast.
Catch Julian Woods at The Austral on Friday 7 November. Tickets on sale via julianwoods.com.au.
