AN EVENING WITH BRENDAN GRACE Veteran Irish comedian Brendan Grace returns to the Ardhowen stage on Wednesday, February 4, at 8pm. Celebrating 43 years in comedy, his upcoming show features some brand new material and some ‘Old Favourites’ from his vast repertoire.

Brendan is a brilliant character actor, known for his comedy schoolboy character Bottler, the role of Murphy in the 1995 movie Moondance and his appearance in the TV sitcom Father Ted as Father Fintan Stack. His sense of timing and ability to read an audience is without equal.

Brendan’s material owes more to the best of the traditional stand-up-comics than it does to modern alternative humour making this very much a show for all the family Although Brendan is now based in Florida, he still plays the Irish theatre circuit regularly and in fact still considers Ireland his first love.

The genial Dubliner has a very special bond with Irish audiences and is much loved by young and old.
