Hooma Comedy presents:
A Celebration of Father Ted with Joe Rooney
Share:
TweetJoin us in celebrating one of the greatest sitcoms ever made, as we welcome renowned stand-up Joe Rooney for a night of all things Father Ted!
Joe featured as the rebellious Father Damo in the classic Father Ted episode The Old Grey Whistle Theft, leading Dougal astray with his earring, cigarette smoking and bad-boy attitude.
Joe will host a screening of the episode, take you behind the scenes and set you a Craggy Island quiz–then prepare yourself for an all-inclusive ‘Lovely Girls Competition’ have you got the loveliest laugh, the loveliest walk, and can you make the loveliest sandwich?
There will also be a dancing priests competition, plus appearances from a nursery-rhyme singing Ziggy Stardust, Nirvana, Johnny Cash and many more – and the evening wouldn’t be complete without a sing-along to ‘My Lovely Horse’!
Come and meet Joe and immerse yourself in the very silly delights of Father Ted.
Ah, go on...you will! “
A purveyor of choice gags, a natural storyteller, guitar in hand, Joe Rooney delights the room with his infectiously manic delivery.” - Ardal O’Hanlon

There was a variety of acts and this was aimed at practicing new material. It was great to laugh along to and each act was engaging and really funny! I’ve been 3 weeks in a row now and they just keep getting better.

An enjoyable evening. Our first time , but will definitely go again. Incredible value for money. 29 spectators giving a lovely atmosphere. Staff were all friendly. Plenty of breaks to buy drinks.

Really intimate little venue, a good selection of comedians who had sets which were short and sweet! Definitely worth a look in and is a fun way to have a cheap night out in the city while supporting some talent!
