Andrew Hamilton - Jokes About the Time I Went to Prison - Miami
In 2021, Andrew Hamilton spent four months in two of Sydney's maximum-security prisons. While incarcerated, Andrew began noticing the transformative power of laughter. After all, if a joke can make you forget you're in prison, what else can it do? Upon his release, Andrew took up stand-up comedy, initially under strict bail conditions where his parents had to come with him to shows, and he had to be home in time for curfew. A year later, Andrew performed his debut solo show, 'Jokes About the Time I Went to Prison', at the 2023 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Andrew's show garnered him critical acclaim, along with a nomination for Best Newcomer.
