Tom Short: Content until I’m famous
Award-winning comedian Tom Short is on a mission—to become famous. But not just any kind of famous. The kind of famous where people stop him in Aldi and say, “Aren’t you that guy from the internet?” Armed with a phone, a dangerously inflated ego, and a deep misunderstanding of how algorithms work, Tom sets out to crack the code of online comedy.

Blending live stand-up, absurd sketches, and chaotic multimedia, this show hilariously dissects the delusional pursuit of viral success and asks: Has comedy become less about making people laugh and more about gaming the system?

From the Comedy Award-nominated writer and performer behind Tom Short: Comedy Genius, 5 Stars is an unhinged deep dive into the world of clicks, clout, and catastrophic self-promotion. Five stars not guaranteed.
