ED BYRNE
‘DIFFERENT CLASS’

Half toff, half pikey... All comic!

Irish comic and star of BBC 2’s Mock the Week, Ed Byrne returns with his blisteringly funny critically acclaimed one man show about marriage, class, the youth of today and anything else that strikes him as humorous.

“a masterful display of the comics art…This is a seamless and perfectly timed show that could stand proudly next to any Izzard, Bailey, Carr or Skinner stadium-filler.” Five stars Sunday Times

“Byrne is at the top of his game”
Four Stars Sunday Telegraph

“Ed Byrne is a class apart”
Four Stars Evening Standard

“At the height of his powers... Its no wonder this is selling out nightly”
The Observer

Four stars
Big Issue

“His wit won deafening cheers and feet stomping” The Guardian

“Dazzling” The Sunday Times

“Jokes come so fast that hecklers don’t have a chance to get a word in edgeways” The Times

“Hottest tip this year is Ed Byrne…fluent, assured and wicked” The Sunday Times

“It is rare for a comic to merit the word “masterful” but in this case it is no overstatement” The Scotsman

“His set had the audience in stitches for most of the evening - they roared their approval at the end - but he is technically excellent as well, the sure sign of a comic on the cusp of a major career. It does not come much better than this.” The Stage

“Utterly Charming” The List

“Astoundingly polished material” The Sunday Telegraph

“This charming man may well be threatening to give stand up a good name” The List

“Byrne looks set to become a comic who will inspire as many swoons as guffaws”
The List

“A comedian with everything going for him, Ed Byrne has all the attributes to upgrade to the big time…see him” The Independent

“He describes himself as a stick insect rather than a sex symbol but the high proportion of women hanging on his every witticism suggests otherwise. He may be thin and weedy but his material certainly is not.” Daily Express

“In complete rapport with his capacity audience” The Scotsman

“A stunningly original piece of work - a comedy star” Irish Times

“The audience went into rapture and insisted on an encore” Time Out

“His wit won deafening cheers and feet stomping” The Guardian
