Abie Philipin Bowman talks comedy

How can you develop your material into a one man show?
How do you market it to the press and the public?

This is a great opportunity for you to learn from someone who knows:

Abie Philbin Bowman has taught creative writing in Trinity College Dublin and at the Irish Centre for Talented Youth. He has a B.A. in English and History, and an M. Phil in Peace Studies from Trinity College. He is also the writer and performer of one of the most successful Irish one-man comedy shows of the decade. ‘Jesus: The Guantanamo Years’ – his debut – took the Edinburgh Fringe by storm. It got rave reviews, completely sold out and was reported by over 30 media outlets, including BBC News, Le Monde and the New York Times. The show then sold out throughout Ireland, as well as touring London’s West End, the USA and Pakistan. (Abie is the only Western stand-up stupid enough to have performed a religious, political comedy in Pakistan during the 2007 State of Emergency). ‘Jesus: The Guantanamo Years’ has since become a top 10 hit on iTunes in Japan and across Europe. Along with his second show, ‘Eco-Friendly Jihad’, Abie has sold out and turned a profit at Edinburgh for three years running. He was dubbed “a rising star” by Time magazine, given his own radio show by i105-107, and boycotted by Ian Paisley’s DUP.

He will come to Anseo on mon 14th and speak for an hour on "How to create a successful One Man Show", he will also advise on how to market the show to the press and public. The cost of this is €30.

Please let me know if you are coming as there are limited places,
Cheers,
Papa
