Tommy Tiernan: tommedian

This show is now SOLD OUT.


This show is strictly over 18s. 

This event is a phone-free show. See below for more information. 

Tommy’s brand new show 'tommedian’ is a fun-fuelled trip through the comic imagination of one of the best comedians in the world. This is a wild, uninhibited and fiercely physical display of stand-up. A madcap parade of characters, memories and ridiculous flights of fancy. Theatrical, poetical and slightly unhinged...

Captivating audiences as "Da Gerry" in Channel 4’s acclaimed series "Derry Girls" and earning high praise as the host of the spontaneous and engaging "The Tommy Tiernan Show" on RTÉ One, Tommy Tiernan is hitting the road with a brand new tour throughout Ireland.


"His poetic storytelling, energetic impressions, and mystifying demeanour take you straight into his imaginative world and it's a wonderful place to be." – Stage Door Joe

"A feral philosopher king." - The Scotsman

"Tiernan can drop in turns of phrase so exquisite that you could call them a sound installation and enter them for the Turner prize." - The Times


Please note the following from the event organisers:


THIS EVENT IS A PHONE-FREE SHOW

WHAT IS A “PHONE-FREE SHOW”?

Just as it sounds. Use of phones/ digital devices will not be permitted in the performance space. 

Please take note of your Row and Seat Number from your digital ticket before your arrival at the venue.

HOW DOES IT WORK? 

Upon arrival at the venue, Yondr (the phone-pouching company hired to do this) will have staff available to help you put your phone in a lockable pouch which you keep throughout the night. There will be ticket writers on site to assist if required. Please take note of your Row and Seat Number from your digital ticket before you arrive at the venue.

WHAT IF I HAVE AN EMERGENCY AND NEED TO ACCESS MY PHONE? 

You can unlock your phone from the pouch at any time by going to the clearly marked ‘Phone Use Area’ located within the venue, see any usher or Yondr staff if you need help finding it. 

WHAT ABOUT BARS OR MERCHANDISE? 

Please bring your physical credit/debit card with you for use at the bar / concessions in the venue.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS & IS IT MANDATORY? 

Yes, it is mandatory, we’re convinced this makes for a better show for everyone involved. Our eyes open a bit wider and our senses are slightly more heightened when we lose the technology crutch we’ve become accustomed to. And yes, it’s a non-negotiable deal.
