This event has now finished.
Attributed to Mark Twain, humour is defined as Tragedy Plus Time. Come and join Ed as he tests that formula by mining the most tragic event in his life for laughs.
With his TV career now in its third decade, Ed has regularly appeared on the likes of QI, Mock The Week, Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, The Pilgrimage, Dara and Ed’s Road to Mandalay, Dara & Ed’s Big Adventure, The Graham Norton Show and Have I Got News For You, as well as hosting Live At The Apollo and Comic Relief Bake Off. He was recently seen as a contestant on BBC One’s Celebrity Best Home Cook (where he made it to show 5 out of 8 – not bad!) and he has also won (yes, won!) celebrity versions of both The Chase and Pointless!
With legions of fans both in the UK and abroad, Ed remains the observational stand-up to see.
Hilarious, extremely dark, profoundly touching and resolutely unsentimental. Ed Byrne has plumbed the very depths of his soul and found something verging on greatness
Rolling Stone UK
A fantastically funny and moving monologue where there is no doubt that we are seeing the authentic Ed… Byrne has hit new heights
London Evening Standard
Grief, regret and lots of laughter in an affecting set
The Guardian
This is just glorious... full of gnarly little joy pockets
