In 2021, Aussie comedian Nick Capper lost a testicle. And no, he’s not getting it back. Faced with the absurdity of mortality, a global pandemic, and the creeping reality of turning 40, Capper decided to do what any sensible person would do: turn it all into comedy gold.
In his new comedy special Hold Me Closer, Tiny Cancer, Capper takes you on a hilarious, brutally honest, and surprisingly philosophical journey through life with one less ‘goolie.’ It’s an exploration of loss, survival, and adapting to the chaos of life – all served with a side of sharp, absurdist humor. Known as a cult favorite on the Australian comedy scene, Capper’s blend of rural Aussie charm and offbeat wit has earned him fans.
With punchlines that sneak up on you and moments of dark hilarity that only he can deliver, Capper is a master of the unexpected. Having toured across the country and left his mark on the festival circuit, Capper’s unique voice has earned him spots opening for comedy heavyweights like Doug Stanhope, Ari Shaffir, Matt Rife, Tim Dillon, and Leslie Liao.
Now, he’s ready to bring his signature style to the stage in this one-of-a-kind show.
Whether you’re laughing through the absurdity of life or reflecting on the things that truly matter (like, you know, having both testicles), Hold Me Closer, Tiny Cancer is a comedy experience you won’t want to miss. Full of heart, hilarity, and just the right amount of missing parts.
Don’t miss the chance to see the agricultural comedian at his best—live, raw, and ready to make you laugh till it hurts.
