The story

Gadsby uses Nanette to deconstruct the nature of comedy and its conventions by having the audience undergo the same tension in which marginalised people suffer on a daily basis. Gadsby shares personal anecdotes related to Gadsby's experiences as a lesbian and gender-nonconforming person, explaining how their comedic style is influenced by their identity. Gadsby was raised in conservative Tasmania surrounded by people prejudiced towards LGBTQ people.
