Willa White: Dead Man Talking

This event has ended

Axis Ballymun, Saturday 23rd May

Following a year which saw him sell out both the 3Olympia Theatre and The Gaiety Theatre (the first comedian to do so in over 10 years), Dublin comedian Willa White will bring his brand new stand-up show Dead Man Talking to Axis Ballymun.

Willa White has exploded in popularity over the past 18 months, quickly marking himself out as one of the biggest names in the Irish comedy circuit, and selling over 10,000 tickets to date. As well as comedy, Willa has taken to acting, performing in the multi-award-winning production The Examination with Irish theatre company Brokentalkers, and just completed a three-night run in The Ambassador Theatre (a venue at which Willa became the first ever comedian to hold a residency). He has also taking to podcasting, seeing his show You Must Be Jokin’, which he co-hosts with fellow Dublin comedian Eric Lalor, fly to the top of the Irish podcast charts.

With support slots alongside Jason Byrne, Tommy Tiernan, Kevin Bridges and John Bishop ticked off the list, Willa is ready to kick start the newest phase of his comedy journey. His newest show Dead Man Talking will see Willa explore his belief that he realistically should have been dead long before the family and friends who’ve gone before him, after attempting to take his own life in 1991. Dead Man Talking will see Willa reflect on memories of those who have passed, and the fun times they shared on this rollercoaster we call life.

This is a show not to be missed!

The Reytons

3Olympia

From topping the UK charts as a completely independent act to headlining major festivals and performing a capacity concert at the legendary Wembley Arena in 2025, The Reytons have defied every industry expectation. Having hurdled every obstacle with nothing but blue-collar grit and determination, the band—comprising Jonny Yerrell, Joe O'Brien, Lee Holland, and Jamie Todd—is now ready to take their "all-killer, no-filler" sound global. The Dublin date forms a key stop on the band’s highly anticipated first-ever World Tour.

Ardal O’Hanlon – Not Himself

Draiocht

Oh, it’s all there! All the trademarks are in evidence in Ardal’s latest show. Beautifully crafted stand-up comedy? Yes. Celebrated use of language? Tick. Lateral thinking, surreal flourishes, sharp observations? Of course. As for the occasional profundity? Maybe. Despite his best attempts over many decades to put the world to rights, it is still a colossal mess. And so, Ardal has no choice but to go out on the road again. Like the good comedy doctor he is, he fearlessly diagnoses the various pathologies and neuroses that are currently ravaging humanity. Disclaimer: No solutions provide
