Sammy Petersen: Why The Long Face
In 2018 Sammy Petersen collapsed onstage and quit standup comedy after 7 years. Two of his comedy mentors, both battling with addiction, had let him down time and time again. Then, standing on his own two feet, he was asked to write a book about his facial palsy called ‘Why The Long Face’. He started podcasting instead but always wanted to come back into the comedy world that gave him respite from his life growing up. This is his debut solo show.
“This is not just a great first show, this is just a great show. Highly recommended.” Wil Anderson
“A very funny human.” Missy Higgins
“I love Sammy. What sort of phukfeatures doesn’t love Sammy?” Tim Minchin
Presented by: Sammy Petersen
Sammy Petersen is a comedy man and producer from Melbourne Australia with his two podcasts 'Confessions' and 'Your Two Drunk Aunties' as well as signing with iHeart to release his new podcast with Georgia Love early 2025.
