Craic in The Box - Comedy Nights in The Black Box!

2003 saw the launch of our hugely successful comedy night Craic in the Box with MC John Colleary. Since then, Des Bishop, Karl Spain, Steve Patterson, Jason Byrne, Colin Murphy, Jeff Green, Adam Hills and many, many more have taken to the Black Box stage. Check out the  Comedy Archive to see who has performed in the past with links to reviews along the way.

If you are interested in comedy and want to receive monthly emails with special offers on the club email aoife and asked to be added to the Craic mailing list.

We also have a 10 minute open mic slot available to any budding comics out there- so let us know who you are ...if you're brave enough. Contact aoifeflynn@modelart.ie now!

  MC John Colleary presents David O'Doherty, with support from Keith Farnan
   
  David O'DohertyOur favourite purveyor of low-key musical whimsy David O'Doherty is best known for his 80's style Yamaha keyboard action and his side-splitting stories. An Edinburgh hero year after year his 2005 show was described as "an absolute joy". He crafts marvellous one-liners and has a hugely enjoyable way of rolling words around and playing with them, getting more laughs than you would believe possible. He will "leave you beaming". (The London Evening Standard)
   
  "Those of us who believe that this is the best show on the Fringe are keeping it to ourselves." *****
 
The Sunday Herald, Scotland
 

 

Keith FarnanWe're also delighted to welcome back support Keith Farnan, who last appeared on the Craic stage with Reuben in 2005. Fresh from a successful Cat Laughs Festival in Kilkenny, Keith is now plying his trade on the London and UK comedy circuit. With an energetic and full-bodied cocktail of stand-up comedy, he mixes up the political and parochial with a worldly wit to give his own Irish/Corkonian skewered version of the world to provide a friendly, fast-paced, frenzy of funny.(try saying that 3 times quickly!)

   
  "One of the best sets I've seen in ages....Fresh, interesting and doesn't use smut as a means of getting a cheap laugh".
