Maeve Higgins : Blabbing Away

Tickets: €18 SO MANY PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR MAEVE BLAB THAT FRIDAY'S SHOW IS SOLD OUT!
SO WE HAVE ADDED AN EXTRA SHOW ON SATURDAY NIGHT ... BOOK NOW!

Maeve loves to blab and is pleased to have lots of new things to blab about to you!

It’s hard to think of examples but she will definitely try to
1. present you with an evening of glowing fun, and
2. not bore you, and
3. include at least one catchphrase in each show, eg: ‘What’s good for the goose is good for the gander’ (and her sister has given her a great recipe)

Since beginning stand up five years ago, Maeve Higgins has performed in comedy festivals around the world, including Edinburgh, Melbourne, Adelaide and Kilkenny. She rapidly rose to an uncomfortable level of notoriety on Irish television in the past few years, on the most watched comedy show in the country, RTE's Naked Camera. She is also a regular contributor to the Ray D'arcy Show on Today FM.

"Higgins is rarer than a blessing of unicorns…she is original and relatively calm, her observations are pithy, her wit delicate, her persona oddly alluring and deftly honest." The Irish Times, September 2009
“Throughout the whole hour the room is filled with laughter at Maeve’s risqué and highly intelligent act." The Irish Independent,
‘Charming and iconoclastic Irish stand-up’ The Age, Melbourne 2008
"Higgins is a great relief from the big loud boys and will win many people over with her quietly charming quality of comedy." The Skinny, 2007
"Maeve Higgins is here to demonstrate how to do Irish charm. She’s not daft, she doesn’t lay it on with a trowel, dimpling and twinkling away, hers is probably the most natural and uncontrived performance you could wish for." Chortle, 2007

Tickets will be on sale before Christmas and would make a very nice Christmas present. Please book early as it was a sell out last year. Tickets from the Firkin Crane (021) 4507487 .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
