“Brilliant & life-affirming – Tommy Tiernan actually makes you proud to be Irish.” -The Irish Independent

“He has the vocabulary of a poet, the soul of a maverick & the passion of an evangelist.” - Chortle

Tommy is delighted to be able to announce his first ever World Tour of Wicklow. Living in bare barren Connemara, he is naturally nervous about spending 4 days in a county full of tree’s and bushes. A lush life has always held its attractions for him though and he would consider it a failure of nerve to arrive out of the county fully intact. “Change me Wicklow” is his battle cry and you can hear him warble in the above towns

Tommy’s mastery of stand-up allows him to take risks other comedians dare not. Through hilarious storytelling and a high energy, non- apologetic delivery he continually challenges his audience who can be confident they are in safe hands. To see Tiernan live is a rare treat, as his stories unfold and themes are elaborated his performance mesmerises as his lyrical way with words make you laugh harder than you’d ever believe possible.

Tommy  Tiernan’s DVD “Crooked Man” has been receiving rave reviews from the critics see below some of the highlights:

If there's a more beautiful stand-up DVD out there, we've yet to see it. . It's also refreshing to see a comic put some love into their live DVD, rather than simply churning out another Christmas cash-in. It's beautifully shot and the Irish comic is on spectacularly funny form." – Time Out London

The best of this bunch is Storyteller Tommy Tiernan’s Crooked Man, There’s unlikely to be a more compelling stand-up out there today, with this show giving us all the sides of Tiernan from the hushed conspirator to the firebrand preacher, riffing on childhood, family and a little bit of politics. Pure genius, so it Is - (●●●●●) The List
