What do you say to a night with two of the most memorable characters from the much-loved Father Ted TV series? It’ll be mad for sure when Joe Rooney and Patrick McDonnell bring Father Damo and Eoin McLove to life via stand-up and musical comedy. Their Stars of Father Ted show comes to Ballymaloe Grainstore on Saturday 12 May at 8pm.
The comical duo are stalwarts of the Irish comedy scene who never fail to put on a unique and hilarious night of entertainment.
You don’t have to be a girl to enter their ‘Lovely Girls’ competition, with the winner receiving a luxury cruise in a boat of their own making, perfect for the voyage to Craggy Island. Expect improvised audience interaction, a unique take on Irish society, and mighty laughs.
‘If they don’t get their own TV show at the end of the run, there is something very wrong with the world.’ – The Scotsman
