Cast: Tom Cashman

Tom Cashman returns for his third stand-up special—a show that might just unlock the secret to happiness (or might not). Originally hitting the road in 2025 under the title *2 Truths, 1 Lie and 17 Slight Exaggerations*, this performance was captured live at Brisbane's Powerhouse on Halloween night, October 31, 2025.

More About This Film

Tom Cashman: The Formula for Happiness is the Australian comedian's third stand-up special. Built around his analytical style, deadpan delivery, and tightly constructed one-liners, the special explores the idea of whether comedy can somehow reveal a formula for happiness.

The material was originally developed during Cashman's international 2025 tour and then recorded before being turned into the finished 2026 digital special. The performance keeps the focus on Cashman's voice and writing, with an intentionally low-key presentation that contrasts with the elaborate title.

  • Directed by Ryan Smith.

  • The special was filmed at Brisbane Powerhouse on October 31, 2025.
  • Runtime is approximately 50 minutes.
