Brendan Grace lined up for Athlone Springs performance

Brendan Grace, the comedy grandmaster, appears at Athlone Springs Hotel on Friday next, August 14. Brendan's latest show features some brand new material and some 'Old Favourites' from his vast repertoire over the last 39 years. His sense of timing and ability to read an audience is without equal. A brilliant character actor, his 'Bottler' character is legendary and is now featured at every performance. Apart from his obvious 'star quality' in all aspects of his performance Brendan's drawing power is enormous and the 'House Full' sign is the norm rather than the exception at his concerts. Nowadays Brendan spends a considerable amount of time in Florida where he resides with his family. Despite this he still plays the Irish theatre circuit and major hotel venues. Brendan gives very generously of his time after each Concert. The 'Meet and Greet' is now very much part and parcel of each show and Brendan's very down to earth approach is much appreciated by all. In more recent times Brendan has managed to attract a younger audience mainly because the content of his show is very 'family' and also because of his hilarious appearance in Father Ted when he played the part of a drinking. smoking, troublemaker extraordinaire Father Fintan Stack. You can catch his new show with special guests: Frankie McDonald, Bernadette Ruddy and band at the Athlone Springs Hotel on Friday next. Tickets priced €25 are available at the hotel. Telephone: 090 64 44444 or on the door on the night.
