Jarlath Regan: Organ Freeman
A selfish man ('A very funny man at the peak of his powers' - Irish Post) is forced to reassess his entire life when his best friend needs a kidney.
A stand up show from the creator of multi-million downloaded Irishman Abroad podcast, about life and death, give and take, Ant and Dec, youth and young manhood, getting it wrong while getting it right and never worrying about anything ever again.
Organ Freeman is Jarlath’s ninth solo show and by far his biggest to date. Fresh from the Edinburgh Fringe (Named in The Independent's Top 20 Jokes Of The Fringe) the show will continue on tour throughout the UK in the autumn culminating in this final performance at Leicester Square Theatre.
You may know Jarlath Regan from such television shows as ITV's Tonight At The Palladium, BBC's Russell Howard’s Good News and Comedy Central's Standup Central. As recommended by Ardal O’Hanlon, Marc Maron, Jack Whitehall, Jason Byrne, The Times, The Telegragh, The Guardian and Tripadvisor.

Helen Lederer and Athena Kugblenu
An Edinburgh Festival preview from So Comedy.
Helen Lederer feels it’s time to spill all, before she forgets and gets taken off the patches altogether. What went on in the Big Brother House?
Can she be honest about stand-up comedy, being fat, wheezy and other secrets? probably not. She might lie.
‘A miracle of comic compression and control’ The Times
'Divinely witty' The Guardian
'Cleverly insane' The Observer
Athena Kugblenu says the world's never had more knowledge, yet never more stupidity. She can’t help but notice consistencies between the universe and herself. How can she blame people for choosing Trump when she's choosing the wrong men?
Clearly we haven't realised she constantly makes mistakes so we don't have to. Join Athena for a tour of the world’s most pressing catastrophes which pale compared to what happened when she fixed her own washing machine.

'Good material, sharp presentation... an important voice' The Sunday Times
