Leitrim Laughs Comedy Club goes offsite with NEIL DELAMERE
Friday 12th March 8.30pm €20 (€18 for comedy club members)
The Dock conducted a survey recently to see which comedian Carrick on Shannon most wanted to see and, having added up the answers, most of you asked for Neil Delamere! So we are bringing him back with a brand new show, Bookmarks, that’s going to be bigger and better than ever – so big in fact we are going offsite to The Bush Hotel!
Seeing your photograph (along with those of 2 Ireland Rugby players, a national broadcaster and an elite athlete) on your university bookmark is food for thought. But this is what happened to our intrepid comedian, Neil Delamere. Best known as the star of RTE's The Panel and BBC's Blame Game, Irish comedian Neil Delamere debuts his new show Bookmarks.
Trinity College has Oscar Wilde, Dublin City University has Neil Delamere. Hmmm. It was a sign. Life is just a series of bookmarks - the events that highlight how far we've come and how far we've left to go. They could be anything, weddings, funerals, charges being dropped, even facing your fears (don't). Neil considers these markers as well as how his photo appeared on the thing in the first place. Time to explore.
Oh yeah, we also get to find out how long Neil will live.

“No TV camera could accurately measure the lightning speed of Delamere’s wit” Irish Times
