Hooma Comedy presents:
A Celebration of Father Ted with Joe Rooney
Share:
TweetJoin us in celebrating one of the greatest sitcoms ever made, as we welcome renowned stand-up Joe Rooney for a night of all things Father Ted!
Joe featured as the rebellious Father Damo in the classic Father Ted episode The Old Grey Whistle Theft, leading Dougal astray with his earring, cigarette smoking and bad-boy attitude.
Joe will host a screening of the episode, take you behind the scenes and set you a Craggy Island quiz–then prepare yourself for an all-inclusive ‘Lovely Girls Competition’ have you got the loveliest laugh, the loveliest walk, and can you make the loveliest sandwich?
There will also be a dancing priests competition, plus appearances from a nursery-rhyme singing Ziggy Stardust, Nirvana, Johnny Cash and many more – and the evening wouldn’t be complete without a sing-along to ‘My Lovely Horse’!
Come and meet Joe and immerse yourself in the very silly delights of Father Ted.
Ah, go on...you will! “
A purveyor of choice gags, a natural storyteller, guitar in hand, Joe Rooney delights the room with his infectiously manic delivery.” - Ardal O’Hanlon

We'd seen John as a compere at Redchurch Brewery (brilliant venue, hosts and beer, also highly recommended) John was fabulous, as such we gathered a group of 14 friends together and went to see him again, this time in Norwich. We were not disappointed, he filled his one man show with sharp observations and had us in stitches, brilliant evening had by us all. I would also like to add that the bar and waiting staff at the Bowling House were excellent, friendly, efficient and tolerant of a table of 14 over 50"s! Many thanks Deb

Laughed loads, excellent value. The seating was rather crammed in, my 6ft 7 son struggled with the leg room, or rather lack of. Other than that all good and we will be back.
