About Dan Rath
Dan Rath: Tropical Depression is a stand-up hour from Australian comedian Dan Rath exploring a mind that struggles to focus. The show weaves together the distractions, absurdities and minor catastrophes of modern life — from microplastics and Long Covid to a parasocial relationship formed with a Deliveroo chatbot and an ill-fated attempt to purchase a mermaid skeleton using cryptocurrency. Rath brings his distinctive comic sensibility to the Fringe at CabVol 1. The show runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
Dan Rath has a genuinely unusual mind and this show leans into that fully — funny, odd and unexpectedly cohesive for something that wanders so freely. A good choice if you want comedy that doesn't follow the usual confessional arc.
