Hi folks,

This is certainly not a very easy message to have to deliver, but one I have to do nonetheless.

Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control and despite a recent determination and resurgence to bring the best comedy available to you, we must regretfully inform you that The Comedy Basement will no longer be running.

We first opened our doors on the 29th January 2009 and have been in action for over two years now, bringing you the best comedic talent from all over Ireland and headline acts from across the globe, from the USA to Australia. However, nothing has given us as much pleasure as allowing you good folk to see top notch local comedy and we hope you’ll be able to recognise some of the guys you saw at the Comedy Basement and be able to remember the days when you didn’t have to pay £20 to see them ;)

So, first and foremost, a massive massive thank you to everyone who has ever performed at the Comedy Basement at any level, a thank you to all our emcees over the years but most importantly a thank you to each and every person who has ever attended the Comedy Basement, we wouldn’t have got this far without you!

Please continue to support local comedy and comedians by seeingt hese guys at other venues across the country, like the Menagerie’s BIG Sunday, the Black Box, Mason’s and the Pavillion etc.

We’d have loved to be able to deliver the show at the end of this month but unfortunately that is now not a possibility, so February 24th was the last gig.

Thanks again for all your support over the years, its been fun!!

Neill
