Deirdre O'Kane
The last few years have been something of a whirlwind for Deirdre O’Kane.
A co-founder of Comic Relief in Ireland, Deirdre presented the critically acclaimed RTÉ Does Comic Relief, which raised more than €6 million to help those most in need as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and reached in excess of 1.4 million viewers across Ireland.
In recent years, she has hosted the prestigious IFTA Film & Drama Awards (for both RTÉ and Virgin Media) and reached the finals of the national broadcaster’s top-rated entertainment show, Dancing with the Stars. Deirdre is also known as the voice of smash-hit perennial, Gogglebox (Virgin Media).
One of Ireland’s favourite comedians, Deirdre never strays too far from her live stand-up roots; her new show, ‘O’ Kaning It’, a box-fresh hour of side-splitting laughs, will be touring Ireland next year.
Will she conquer the chaos or revel in it? Tame the mayhem or O’Kane it?
Either way you're in for a night of relentless laughs fuelled by warped personal insight.
Advance tickets for all shows are available online at www.thesourceartscentre.ie - or by phone from the Box office on 0504 90204.
Saturday, September 28
Doors: 8pm.
