Ryan Mason Wastes His Potential
In 2019, Ryan Mason was voted 'Most Likely to become Prime Minister' at his high school graduation. It was a time when he had hopes, dreams, and aspirations. Now, Ryan is performing stand up comedy in a shipping container, having performed at all three of the comedy venues in Adelaide.
After a sell out season that won the Adelaide Fringe 'One to Watch' Award in 2024, Ryan is back with a brand new show all about arts degrees, identity politics, and the sort of things you expect to see at every other comedy show this Fringe.
Presented by: Ryan Mason
Ryan Mason is a comedian based in Adelaide, South Australia. At just 22 years old, Ryan has fast become a rising star in the Adelaide comedy scene.
