Here’s two very different nights to choose from. And I want to go to both.
Remember we talked at length about Shane Langan’s brilliant Not Also But Only comedy show? Well, here’s a darker twist on that. It’s the Marshmallow Ladyboy Jesus show and it runs in the Exchange Dublin tonight from 7pm.
You are cordially invited to the first ever Marshmallow Ladyboy Jesus night. An evening of dark and mysterious comedy from a variety of Ireland’s most talented writers, comedians and storytellers.
Our first event features comedian’s Shane Langan, and Ronan Grace; Milk and Cookie Stories star storyteller Tom Rowley; journalist and humourist Cian Hallinan; writer and publisher Andrew Booth; and animation from artist Sarah Devereux, as well as several surprise guests.
The event will be presented and curated by writer and comedian Gareth Stack, who’ll be performing material featured in Piranha!, Ladyboy Jesus online magazine, and the upcoming darkly comic novel Jackdaw Fool. Gareth has been described as across between across between Vincent Price and Stewie from family guy.
Expect darkness, hilarity and literary japes. This is not a standup comedy night. There may even be marshmallows.
It’s priced at a tiny €5 with all profits donated to Exchange Dublin.
And if that’s wasn’t enough craziness, how do you fancy catching Jonathan Ross’s houseband, Four Puffs and a Piano? The George is celebrating it’s 25th Birthday and tonight is The Queen’s Silver Jubilee Birthday Celebration. A hell of a lot more than four puffs will be there to raise a glass to one of Dublin’s most iconic bars. The hilarious quartet will help blow out the birthday candles, while The George’s resident drag queens perform a tribute performance. With a glass of free bubbly on arrival, birthday cake and more, this is going to me a massive night out, so don’t miss it.
Tickets are just €10 and check out TheGeorge.ie for more details.
