Comic Neil Delamere reveals Sligo dates in Early March
Top Irish stand- up Neil Delamere has announced details of his brand new tour Handstand, which is coming to the Hawkswell Theatre on 3rd March.
Audiences can expect the usual banter and quick- witted, well- observed comedy at Handstand as they have come to expect from Delamere, who has been described by critics as “a master” ( The Scotsman) and ‘ a wryly brilliant live performer” ( Sunday Times). His return this year to the Edinburgh Fringe festival received a five- star review from the Scotsman, which observed, “Delamere’s a comic who likes to engage with the audience… whatever comes up, Delamere latches onto it and makes it hysterical… the laughter is loud, genuine and non- stop… ridiculously sharp, fearlessly funny.. Quantum comic… you’ll be hard pressed to find a more gifted comic on the Fringe”. The star of RTÉ’s The Panel, 2nd Republic, BBC’s The Blame Game, Fighting Talk and Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow is renowned for delivering powerhouse, sell- out performances, whether it’s at Dublin’s Vicar Street, or further afield at high- profile international festivals such as the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival. An accomplished broadcaster as well as comic, Neil is the host of his own hugely- popular two- hour weekend show on Today FM. Neil will make a welcome return to TV screens this Autumn ( starts Friday 28th October) in the ever- popular panel show The Blame Game on BBC.
