 ‘Playful, inventive and brilliant’ John Colleary is set to perform in Carrick-on-Shannon

The Dock is delighted to welcome John Colleary to Carrick-on-Shannon for his Loud and Colleary show on February 09 at 8pm.

Apart from being one of the most in-demand comics in the land, John Colleary has also co-written and starred in IFTA-nominated shows, The Savage Eye (RTÉ 2) and Irish Pictorial Weekly (RTÉ One).

Other TV credits include appearances on Stand and Deliver (Live from Róisín Dubh) and The Panel (RTÉ 2). A talented actor and mimic, John is featured as one-third of The Gusset Brothers on The Tommy Tiernan Show (RTÉ One).

Tommy Tiernan said that the musician is his “favourite comic” as he had learned so much from him. “He is playful, inventive and brilliant - the best,” he said. 

He has also scooped an IMRO Award for his topical sketch writing and performance on Today FM’s drivetime flagship, The Last Word, and is a favourite at Ireland’s top comedy clubs and festivals. Admission is €18/€16 early bird.
