Prime Video today released the trailer for upcoming comedy special Dave Hughes: Ridiculous
This one-hour exclusive special from Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes, one of Australia’s most popular comedians, was filmed in front of a live audience in 2022 and launches March 24 on Prime Video globally.
While Melbourne was locked down, Dave Hughes was trending. He went viral during the pandemic and managed to get himself in trouble with pretty much everyone. Luckily, Hughesy is zen. He is at peace with the chaos he creates, knowing that from great turmoil comes even greater material. Hughesy has always attacked his comedy like a man with nothing to lose. A week hasn’t gone by in the last 25 years that Hughesy hasn’t done stand-up, whether headlining an iconic theatre or jumping up at a tiny club. What has worried him by day becomes fodder for that night’s material. To him, every audience is a great crowd and they should never forget that.
Dave Hughes: Ridiculous is one of five Australian stand-up specials launching Prime Video is releasing this year including upcoming Tommy Little: Pretty Fly for a Dickhead and Lizzy Hoo: Hoo Cares? and recently released, Joel Creasey: Queen of the Outback and Rhys Nicholson’s Big Queer Comedy Concert.
