image071Tommy’s “Crooked Man” international tour received rave reviews. The gloriously funny and life affirming material signalled the comedian at his finest. And so, for this particular performance Tommy wanted to do something special, something that had never been done in Ireland before and was true to the art of stand up, to shoot a stand up comedy show on film. In collaboration with British director Richard Ayoade (Writer and Director of “Submarine”, who also plays Maurice Moss in C4’s the IT Crowd) Tommy returned to an intimate venue that has played a big part of his career, City Limits, Cork. This performance, recorded on more than eight motion film cameras, perfectly captures the passion and vitality of Tommy’s intimitable live show where themes are explored that will make you laugh harder than you’d ever believe possible.

Recorded in 2011.
