    KEITH FARNAN: ANONYMOUS

    "Brilliant, thought-provoking and laugh out loud funny" – TIME OUT

    Liberty. Privacy. Comedy.

    Irish comedian Keith Farnan(Mcintyre's Comedy Roadshow) can only guarantee one of these as he explores just how bad things are when it comes to protecting our privacy and whether such a thing actually still exists.

    Every day, we find out that more of our personal data has either been given away, acquired in the interest or national security or sold to the highest bidder. But what harm if some of our details end up on a database? Who cares if our emails and amazon wish lists end up on the desk of the NSA? And surely, algorithms analysing words and phrases from our facebook updates in an effort to profile us into a certain demographic is a good and useful thing. Right? Maybe the future isn't as bad as 1984, maybe it'll end up like Blade Runner, with stunning visuals, lots of rain and a slow motion dove. Maybe we don't really need our privacy anyway, so let's start by getting rid of curtains and go on from there.

    Having appeared on BBC's Michael Mcintyre Comedy Roadshow, Montreal's Just for Laughs, Showtime's Live from Amsterdam as well as Money, Money, Money, his own stand-up documentary for RTE, IrishcomedianKeith Farnan has performed at festivals across the world. His Edinburgh Festival shows have proved a powerful mix of the personal and the political and have sold out their runs at the major comedy festivals in the UK as well as the Soho Theatre and Royal Festival Hall in London. Radio appearances include captaining the panel show, Bad Language for BBC Scotland's Bad Language, BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends and BBC Scotland's The Guessing Game with Clive Anderson.

    "Artful, satirical…with a lightness of touch and a hefty helping of roguish Celtic charm" – THE SUNDAY TIMES


    TIERNAN DOUIEB-THE WORLD IS FULL OF IDIOTS, LET'S ALL LIVE IN SPACE

    The inspirational Commander Chris Hadfield from the Canadian Space Agency said that after spending 6 months on the International Space Station he felt a great sense of just how much the world is all one place and we are all one people living together on it. In this new hour of stand-up, professional cheery misanthrope Tiernan Douieb wonders why we have to send people quite so far away to have that realisation, and just how feasible is it to fire a large portion of the world into space until they behave? Lots of new words from 'very friendly but fiercely political' (Time Out) comedian Tiernan, that together will form sentences to create jokes about politics, people and why most things are despairingly wrong, including himself.


    'Cheeky, affable and politicised' - The Metro

    'One of Britain's leading satirists' - Buzzfeed

    'Has more than enough energy to go round, and he's a hugely engaging onstage presence.' - British Comedy Guide

    'For sheer energy, commitment and funny you would need to look hard to find a man as joyous as Tiernan.' - Mark Thomas
