Hello, hello, this is Aidan here from The Merry Lion, writing from Ireland. While we have not yet reopened The Merry Lion, we do have some good news, we are bringing this phenomenal comedian to town. Hopefully, this will be a stepping stone to getting us back up and running on a more regular basis.
After some years away, Al Porter (Ireland) steps back into the spotlight with his most personal show to date, ‘Now’, an upfront and upbeat take on his journey to Singapore for the first time ever!
★★★★ “charisma to fill the 02” - London Evening Standard
Hot off the back of a sell-out work in progress tour, with reports of standing ovations every night, the word is out that Al has come back better than ever, only just hitting his prime. Some of the old gloss is gone but that reveals the real Al beneath.
‘Now’ is a hilarious tour de force, a feel-good show with unbreakable spirit and optimism and big laughs from start to finish from the head and heart of one Ireland’s best comic talents.
★★★★ “a steamroller crowd pleasing talent” - The Guardian
Al has come back with a see-it-to-believe-it presence and as a powerhouse performer in his best show yet! Get your tickets to see this man of the hour!
★★★★ "shades of Dave Allen...born to be on stage" - Chortle
See you at the show,
Aidan
