Derek Ryan

Gentle in his outlook, but passionate in his delivery, Derek Ryan is best known as a self-effacing and gag-heavy storysmith. As equally at home with the smart & the silly as the profane and profound, his on-stage likeability disguises a keen wit and incisive world view from angles you might not expect. A warm-hearted and verbally dexterous performer that gets the audience onside within seconds, this veteran of the Irish circuit is set to become a hugely popular act in the UK. Since the mid-noughties, Derek has played all over Ireland, the UK, mainland Europe and in the US from New York to Los Angeles. 'Highly entertaining from start to finish!' (Metro) 'Gorgeously talented!' (Kilkenny People).
