Event2023 Paddy Lama

REMIND ME ABOUT THIS EVENT

A Dubliner full of wit and wisdom, Paddy used to say, "If you don't continue to talk about someone when they die, they die twice".

In this one-man play, Jason Byrne brings the full life of Paddy Byrne to the stage playing his dad, keeping him alive in stories full of laughter and tears. This is 80 years of Dublin wit, 80 years of Dublin bull, but heart-warming and loving all the same. "Sure, that's life son, just don't tell ure mother".

Following a 3 week total sell out run at the Edinburgh Festival, Jason takes his hilarious yet heart rending most personal work to his favourite Irish venues. A celebration of a parent, a celebration of a generation, a celebration of life.

"If you worry you die ... if you don't worry, you die anyway ... so why worry!" - Paddy Byrne
