The
Stand Comedy Club as
most of our regulars will know is a year long favurite of ours
providing top quality comedy at very reasonable prices. Also when
they sell a gig as The Best of Irish, they are not joking.
Compered
by the Channel 4 King of Comedy Andrew Maxwell and three acts,
the fabulous Owen O'Neill, a new name to me Keith
Farnan and the superbly manic bundle of Irish Mayhem that
is Jason Byrne and all for a very reasonable ticket price too.
I'd
previously only seen Maxwell on television, but from what I saw of
him I'd like to se his full act this year at the Pleasance Cabaret
Bar.
Owen
O'Neill is of course a comedian of note and also a fine actor. He
is doing stand-up at The Stand and is also in The Odd Couple at
the Assembly Halls.
Jason
Byrne is a legend and I never tire of seeing his act. He of course
can be found at Assembly Rooms Music Hall.
These
were the acts on when I saw the show but different nights are
likely to have different lineups, but given the Stand's reputation
for quality, I'm sure you'll not be disappointed.
