Shakespeare once wrote, “All the world’s a stage and all its men and women are merely players”, well this September the mighty county of Mayo will be the stage for the peerless Tommy Tiernan as the multi-award winning comic embarks on his ‘World Tour of Mayo 09'.
Fearless, inspiring, and armed with a breadth of comic abilities rivalled by no one in stand-up today, Tiernan is able to expertly write and perform jokes born from every corner of the mind, politics, sex, family relationships, international observations, religion and drugs, it’s all there. Having recently broken the Guinness World Record for the longest continuos solo show by a comedian (36 hours 15 mins ) and sell-out runs at the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival and Galway Arts Festival, Tiernan is currently in irresistible form. This whistle stop tour is a perfect and timely robust antidote to the depressive, recessionary mood that prevails right now.
Tommy will play Matt Molloy’s, Westport on Thursday September 17; the Ramada, Ballina on Friday September 18; the Gateway Leisure centre, Belmullet on Saturday September 19; the McWilliam Park Hotel, Claremorris on Sunday September 20; the Park Hotel, Kiltimagh on Friday September 25 and Hotel Newport on Saturday September 26. Tickets are €25 and are available from the venue. All shows commence at 8.30pm.
