Anyone in the market for a new bed frame? Award-winning comedian and viral sensation Lou Wall is bringing their show Breaking the Fifth Wall to SoHo playhouse this fall. It will play a limited three-week engagement from Sept. 17 to Oct. 5. 

The show sold out in Wall’s native Australia and had a successful run in Edinburgh. It’s the follow-up to their infamous bed saga, which went viral at the Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala. Their story about trying to sell a bed frame on Facebook Marketplace was viewed over 50 million times in 48 hours. It left thousands of audiences with questions — questions that Wall will answer in Breaking the Fifth Wall. But can you trust their answer is honest? 

Breaking the Fifth Wall will be directed by Zoë Coombs Marr, who is a performer, writer, and one of Australia’s most accomplished comedians. She is the creator, writer and host of “Queerstralia,” a fascinating look into the untold LGBTQIA+ history of Australia, available to stream on ABC iView. 

Breaking the Fifth Wall runs approximately 60 minutes with no intermission. It will play Wednesday to Saturday at 9 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m. For tickets and more information, visit here.
