Comedian Daniel Fernandes has announced an unconventional performance space for his upcoming Sydney Comedy Festival shows – a shipping container. The stand-up comic shared the news through an Instagram post featuring himself standing in front of his temporary venue.
Shipping Container Becomes Stage For Comedy
“Perform in a shipping container ✅ Office for the next 2 nights! Come on down! Ticket link in my bio,” Fernandes wrote in his Instagram caption, adding the hashtags #sydneycomedy and #sydneycomedyfestival.
The image shows Fernandes standing in what appears to be a modified shipping container that has been transformed into a performance venue, highlighting the creative and unconventional spaces being utilized for this year’s Sydney Comedy Festival.
International Tour In Progress
This shipping container performance is part of Fernandes’ broader international tour schedule. According to his recent social media updates, the comedian has been building anticipation for his Australian performances over the past several weeks.
In previous posts, he outlined his upcoming tour dates: “Sydney – Apr 23 & 24, Melbourne – May 2, Chennai – May 18, Hong Kong – May 23.” The shipping container shows appear to be the Sydney performances referenced in these earlier announcements.
Just a few days before this announcement, Fernandes expressed his enthusiasm for performing in Australia, writing: “Believe me when I say that I’m fighting the urge to move to Australia very hard! @comedystoresyd is easily one of the best clubs on the planet!”
