Fancy some Thursday night laughs? Then come over to Tierney’s Irish Bar in Nijmegen for your monthly stand up comedy event! This month we have acts from the UK – Andy Field and the US – Brian Babylon who are both visiting the Netherlands for some shows and doing one night only in Nijmegen – don’t miss them!
Andy Field (UK) – our January headliner, called ‘one to watch’ (Chortle), has made an impact on the comedy scene with his silly style and refreshing approach to traditional stand up. He is also the lead writer and star of his own BBC Radio 1 sketch series The Andy Field Experience.
He is a regular at festivals such as Latitude, Download, Bestival, Leefest, Secret Garden Party and Green Man, Andy is a familiar face at top comedy clubs around the UK.
TV appearances include BBC Presents: Stand Up For Live Comedy (BBC 1 & BBC 3), As Yet Untitled (Dave), The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2) and Pie and a Pint (Comedy Central)
See what the critics have to say:
“A joyous insight into a truly bizarre mind” - The Telegraph
“He has a surreal outlook, a set packed full of proper punchlines and a nerdy glee in sharing it.” Steve Bennett, Chortle
“This is what Milton Jones would be like if he had his pick of the mushroom fields” - Broadway Baby
“Wonderfully weird” - Ed Fest Mag
"a disaffected, shambling stoner, making few concessions to being likeable and essentially goading the crowd into disengaging" - The Scotsman
