About Daniel Sloss
Daniel Sloss is one of the most exciting and internationally acclaimed stand-up comedians working today. The Scottish comedian has taken the world by storm with his unique blend of dark humor, deeply personal storytelling, and razor-sharp wit that leaves audiences simultaneously laughing and thinking.
Sloss first gained widespread attention with his Netflix specials Dark and Jigsaw, both of which became global phenomena. Jigsaw in particular went viral for its brutally honest take on relationships, reportedly contributing to thousands of breakups worldwide — a fact Sloss wears as a badge of honor.
Now he returns with his brand-new tour, BITTER, which promises to be his most ambitious and provocative work yet. Sloss has performed over 100 sold-out shows across the globe and has appeared on Conan, The Late Late Show, and multiple international comedy festivals. This is a rare chance to see him live in Madison.

About the Venue
The Orpheum Theater is one of Madison’s most iconic and beloved entertainment venues, situated right on State Street in the heart of downtown. Originally opened in 1926, this beautifully restored art deco theater is a premier destination for world-class comedy, concerts, and live performances.
The Orpheum seats approximately 1,400 guests and features excellent sightlines from every section, a stunning historic interior, and a vibrant atmosphere that enhances every live performance. The venue’s intimate scale ensures that even seats further back feel close to the action.
The Orpheum offers a full bar and concessions, and its State Street location puts it steps away from Madison’s best restaurants, bars, and coffee shops — perfect for a pre-show dinner or post-show drinks. Parking is available in nearby ramps and on surrounding streets.
What to Expect
Daniel Sloss’s BITTER tour is a brand-new solo stand-up show featuring all-new material. Expect a masterclass in comedic storytelling — Sloss weaves together personal anecdotes, dark observations, and philosophical musings into a seamless, hilarious, and often surprisingly moving performance.
His shows are known for building slowly and deliberately, drawing the audience in with laughs before delivering emotional gut-punches that make the comedy hit even harder. This is not a typical stand-up show — it’s a full theatrical experience that will stay with you long after you leave the theater.
Doors open at 6:00 PM. Arrive early to grab a drink and settle in before the show begins at 7:00 PM sharp. This is a 34-city tour, and Madison is one of the lucky stops — don’t miss it.
