Comedy

Tommy Tiernan: Paddy Crazy Horse

Date: Friday, Apr 12 2019
Time: 8:00pm
Venue: Anson Rooms

Charismatic, theatrical and hugely popular Irish comic heads out on the road again.

“Tommy rants and raves, he dances and acts. He tries to be very silly and very serious at the same time.

“He mixes a love of comic rebellion and a refusal to be conscripted into a rational view of the world with a deep love for talking and the poetry of everyday speech. Using high theatricality and lots of sweary language, this is a fast paced and exuberant celebration of everything that’s wild, wrong and wonderful about being alive right here, right now. It is by turns clever and then really stupid.”

Tommy Tiernan’s legendary record-breaking ticket sales extend across the world. The Star of Channel 4’s hit show Derry Girls and Live at the Apollo (BBC) writes a weekly newspaper column for the Sunday Independent and hosts his own improvised chat show on Ireland’s RTE 1.

“There is a spirituality to Tiernan that makes him stand out.  The church’s loss is comedy’s gain…Imperious” – The Irish Independent

“Emphatic comic power” – The Guardian
