COLIN GEDDIS is a huge name in comedy in Northern Ireland. His January 2020 show at the SSE Arena in Belfast is already sold out, and he has just added a second night.
He will not remain solely the biggest thing in Northern Irish comedy for long. The rest of Ireland, as well as Britain, must soon fall under his spell, which is why catching him at his upcoming show at the Comedy KARLnival in the Róisín Dubh on Tuesday July 9, is recommended.
Geddis is the creator and writer of Gedzilla films, an online based sketch and stand up comedy channel which has seen him reach c10,000,000 YouTube hits. He also created the successful audio and video podcast ‘Audio Picnic’, which has enjoyed thousands of plays and downloads on iTunes since its creation in 2010. He now produces his own The General Banter Podcast, which has had more than 500,000 downloads.
Support is from Aaron McCann, who returns to Galway to bring us his take on a culchie from Omagh and his travels in the USA. Culture NI has called him, "a unique voice on the comedy scene and one that's only going to get louder”. Also on the bill is Andrew Gilmore, who will be telling tales of debauchery and yoga. Krank.ie called him, "a fantastically charming and disturbingly vivid storyteller”.
