Ardal O'Hanlon: Not Himself

Ardal O'Hanlon: Not Himself

Show type: Tour

Starring: Ardal O'Hanlon

Taking the audience on a thought-provoking journey following an alarming experience at the supermarket, Ardal O'Hanlon examines his identity as a man and a comedian, reflecting on everything from his own ethnic and religious background to the joys and follies of contemporary life. Not Himself is a testament to the healing power of humour, touched with life enhancing observations and unexpected twists

With no major trauma of his own to draw on for material, apart from the drag of getting older, this show sees Ardal turn his gaze outwards at the joys and follies of contemporary life, with no current idiocy left unexamined. Towel Animals? AI? Chair Yoga? Cauliflower as a main course? Yes. Yes. Yes. And Yes. Join Ardal as he navigates the ridiculousness of our times, reminding us all to find laughter amidst life's chaos.
