Comedy, astrology and cosmic craic with Anna Clifford, Taran O'Sullivan, Sinéad Walsh and Aideen McQueen.

Comedy For Witches

A Night Written in the Stars... and Filled with Laughs.

As part of Jinglefest Comedy Shows, the hugely popular Comedy For Witches comes to The Barracks for an evening of comedy, astrology, audience interaction and magical mayhem.

Join host Anna Clifford and special guests Taran O'Sullivan, Sinéad Walsh and Aideen McQueen on Sunday, 6th December at 8pm for a unique comedy experience that combines stand-up, storytelling and cosmic chaos in equal measure.

This is not your typical comedy show. Expect star signs, moon phases, questionable life decisions, magical storytelling and plenty of opportunities to blame Mercury, the moon or the universe itself for whatever is currently going wrong in your life.

Having sold out shows across Ireland, from Dublin to Galway, Comedy For Witches has built a devoted following by bringing together people who believe in something a little bigger than themselves. Whether that's astrology, manifesting, crystals, the moon, fate, or simply hoping the iCloud backs itself up.

You don't need to be a witch to enjoy the show. In fact, all are welcome. The word "witch" is used with a pinch of salt, a dash of mischief and a healthy sense of humour.

Come armed with your star sign and prepare to leave with plenty of laugh lines.
