Roisin Dubh Comedy presents....
Foil Arms & Hog, Colum McDonnell, Paddy Cullivan & Danny Dowling
Foil Arms & Hog
Foil, Arms and Hog perform fast-paced gag filled comedy sketches with a surreal edge. In the past three years they have rocketed to success, reaching cult status amongst comedy goers in Ireland and the UK.
"One of the brightest new acts out there" - The Irish Times
"I love these guys, check them out!" - Des Bishop
Colum McDonnell
What Colum McDonnell lacks in stature, he gains in laughter. The "wee" man from Dundalk has established himself on the Irish comedy circuit with an unusual outlook on life.
A finalist in the 2002 BBC newcomers and the channel 4 "so you think your funny?" competitions
Often mistaken for one of the hobbits in Lord of the rings, his tales of magpies, trains and sinking ships will leave you laughing your little wet pants off!
Paddy Cullivan
More than just the Late Late Show House Band's Lead Singer, Paddy offers hilarious social and political observation interspersed with songs. Irreverent, political but always fun...his show is a most welcome antidote to the recession you"ll ever need...
Danny Dowling
New Zealand's export to Headford Danny was recently on your telly winning TV3's Come Dine With Me with the highest score of the whole series. Not only does he throw custard pies, Danny throws jokes just as well. "Blistering and irreverent" Hotpress
