About This Event

The Black Box presents Kill Your Darlings on 17 October 2026, a theatrical event where comedians Alan Irwin and Ronan Linskey challenge other performers to craft brand-new material. Guided by William Faulkner's adage regarding the editing of creative work, the show features a lineup of Northern Ireland comedy talent honing their craft in front of an audience. Attendees may purchase tickets for £6.13 to witness this collection of fresh sets being developed live on stage. The production serves as a demonstration of the rigorous artistic process behind stand-up performance within Belfast's theatrical landscape.

Comedians Alan Irwin and Ronan Linskey will host the event, showcasing the best in Northern Ireland comedy as performers are challenged to create and present brand-new material. The show, established in 2017, promises a dynamic afternoon filled with fresh sets and even includes some bad karaoke for added entertainment. Full line-ups can be found on the Kill Your Darlings Instagram, although they are subject to change.

Doors open at 2.30pm, and the show will promptly begin at 3.00pm. Ticket holders should arrive in time to find their seats before the performance starts. Please note that the event is designed for an adult audience, and appropriate age regulations will apply.
