A bonafide mega-superstar in Ireland and one of the most enigmatic forces on the world stage, Des Bishop gave Melbourne the first nibble of his brand of stand-up last year. Now he's coming back to wax hysterically lyrical on the experiences that have shaped him into the man he is today.
Des first rocketed to stardom in his adopted Ireland following the incredible success of the one-man TV show, The Des Bishop Work Experience. Since then, Des has gone on to create two other TV productions, Joy in the Hood and, most recently, In the Name of the Fada.
"You're likely to come out of Bishop's show with the energy of the room still coursing through you." The Age
"Funny, erudite and effortlessly delivered. ****" The Scotsman (UK)
