Do you remember the last time you pissed yourself laughing at someone shouting “Peekaboo!”?
No? Us neither. But after disappearing from the comedy scene to have a baby, 2026 Billy T Award nominee Samantha Hannah is back—and that’s what she’s working with.
In a bold attempt to reinvent herself as a touring children’s entertainer, your favourite Scottish–New Zealand comedian is trialling her brand-new “family-friendly” act in rooms full of unsuspecting adults. What could possibly go wrong?
Peekaboo! takes the first joke you ever learned and tries to make it relevant again in this fresh, wildly silly and slightly inappropriate stand-up hour. Expect new routines, enlightening videos, and a slightly chaotic live experiment with a comedian who has forgotten how to talk to other adults.
This is not a show aimed at people who’ve recently had babies—it’s for anyone who used to be a baby. (Hopefully all of you.)
“Samantha Hannah is a comedian at the top of her game.” — Theatreview
“Inventive, perceptive, generous and just plain funny.” — The Post
“Absolutely delightful comedy gold.” — Theatreview
