I don’t want to be a funny person, I want to be a comedian…
Meet Steve Johnston. He’s always wrestling with compromises. He’s constantly under the spotlight. He’s a stand-up comedian.
As his career takes off, the stages get bigger and the choices get tougher. Will he get everything he wants, or lose everything he has?
After the runaway success of Quietly (Winner of the Writers’ Guild Awards for Best Play 2013) we are delighted to present this insightful new play by Owen McCafferty. Death of a Comedian is an exciting collaboration between the Abbey Theatre, Soho Theatre, London and the Lyric Theatre, Belfast.
Latecomers may not be admitted.
Performance contains very strong language so would not be recommended for Under 16.
