The Gong Show Comedy Competition is scheduled for August 8th at 8:30pm in the cellar of Peadar Kearney's Pub in Dublin. Various performers will take part in this community event, though specific line-up details are not provided in the supplied information. Pricing and booking availability should be checked directly on the website.
The Gong Show is an American amateur talent contest created by Chuck Barris in 1976 and franchised by Sony Pictures Television to many countries. Each performer was evaluated by a panel of three celebrity judges who could strike a gong to end a performance they disliked. A small cash prize has typically been awarded to each episode's winner. The Gong Show is known for its absurdist humor, and often features amateurish, racy or questionable performers interspersed with more legitimate acts. The actual competition was typically secondary to the outlandish acts, and the series is also known for its free-form style which featured various interruptions, digressions and running jokes.
