Kieran Lawless is an award-winning Irish comedian with a Masters Degree in History a qualification he is now shamelessly trying to justify. In this show, Kieran dives headfirst into the wonderfully chaotic, wildly improbable, and occasionally absurd story of Irish history. From baffling invasions to heroic disasters, he asks the important academic questions, such as: Is Irish history a story of heroic struggle, or a masterclass in chaotic decision-making? and How can a country be simultaneously oppressed, rebellious, and wildly optimistic? Kieran has performed extensively in comedy clubs across Ireland and the UK, supported Patrick Kielty at Dublins Olympia Theatre, and has made multiple appearances on Irish television as a stand-up comedian. Reviews Kieran Lawless exudes effortless wit and lovable charm in equal measure, winning over audiences to genuinely make them feel like part of the show. Dublinks Rip-roaringly funny, and a dark horse for the festival season. Le Cool
