Following a sold-out U.S. theatre tour last year, legendary comedian, Tommy Tiernan, will bring his new show, Tommy Tiernan: tommedian, to The Royal Theatre on November 5, 2024, as part of his North American theatre tour.
A fun-fueled trip through the comic imagination of one of the best comedians in the world, Tommy Tiernan: tommedian is a wild, uninhibited and fiercely physical display of stand-up. A madcap parade of characters, memories and ridiculous flights of fancy. Theatrical, poetical and slightly unhinged.
Performing stand-up for close to thirty years, Tommy Tiernan is a comedian, actor, chat show host, writer and podcaster who has won international awards for his comedy and is one of the most widely respected comedians in the business.
Hailed by Billy Connolly as one of his 3 favourite comedians in the world, Tommy was voted Ireland’s Funniest Living Person and holds a Guinness World Record for the longest stand-up comedy performance at 36 hours and 15 minutes.
He has starred in ten hour-long stand-up specials and has made multiple television appearances, including three on Late Show with David Letterman.
On April 30, Tommy premiered his tenth hour-long stand-up special, Tommy Tiernan: Tomfoolery, available to rent or buy worldwide.
Tommy stars as ‘Da Gerry’ in the award-winning Netflix tv show Derry Girls and can be seen in the Hulu TV series, Conversations with Friends. Tommy’s film and theatre career spans over 25 years appearing in movies such as Dark Lies the Island, the Oscar nominated Wolf Walkers, and on stage most recently with Druid in Sive.
The eighth season of Tommy’s critically-acclaimed TV show, The Tommy Tiernan Show, ran from January through April 2024 on RTÉ One in Ireland. In this improvised talk show, neither Tommy nor the viewers are told the identity of the guests until they are introduced.
