Jim Jefferies Netflix Comedy Special
Nashville, TN Saturday, March 19
A headline performer in North America, Asia, South Africa and Europe, Jefferies got his comedy footing while performing stand up in Britain. His numerous festival performances put events such as The Edinburgh Fringe, Just For Laughs, The South African Comedy Festival, Reading and Leeds Festival and The Glastonbury Festival on the map. Jefferies is the creator and star of Legit, an edgy, controversial original comedy series. In Legit, Jefferies portrays a heightened version of himself as a comedian from Australia who realizes there's more to life (and his career) than the rock and roll lifestyle of stand up comedy. Prior to Legit, Jefferies has appeared on numerous TV shows in England including Channel 4's The History of Offensive Humor, BBC1's Heaven and Earth, and ITV2's Comedy Cults. U.S. audiences got their first taste of Jefferies when he appeared on HBO's Down and Dirty with Jim Norton. Jefferies first established his controversial and belief challenging comedy in 2009 with the highly acclaimed HBO special 'I Swear to God.' He followed up with 'Alcoholocaust,' which aired on Showtime, and then continued with 'Fully Functional,' which premiered on EPIX in 2012. In 2014, Jefferies released his first and highly acclaimed Netflix comedy special, 'BARE,'. Don't miss seeing him tape his second Netflix Special in Nashville.
