Pull up a chair, as Danny Bhoy heads to Cuba this weekend with a smart blast of observant comedy. Since his first solo show in a modest 60-seater at the Edinburgh Fringe back in 2001, Danny's Bhoy's star has continued to rise, with his eight solo show at the Fringe selling out last year.
He has smashed box office records in Australia, Canada, New Zealand as well as his home country of Scotland, and comes to Galway on the back of a sell-out tour of the US.
His recent appearances at the Montreal Just For Laughs Comedy Festival have created a stir among audiences and critics alike, with the Montreal Gazette describing him as ‘the stand out hit of the festival' in the same year he was also nominated for a Gemini Award for Best Individual Comedy Performance. In 2008, he had the honour of appearing on the prestigious All Star Gala, usually reserved for veteran comics of the festival.
After the huge success of his first DVD 'Live at The Opera House', Danny has just released his second DVD 'Live at the Athenaeum', which features more hilarious yarns. In July 2009, he also recorded a highly prestigious one-hour Comedy Central Special. The special will be aired in the US early next year.
Danny Bhoy will be performing at Club Cuba this Friday, 23 July at 8.30pm. Tickets cost €17.50. For more details, visit www.galwayartsfestival.com.
