An evening of raucous true life stories and poetry
Hilarious emotional washing of the underwear...
The Whole Nine Yarns is a mixture of comedy storytelling and poetry, segueing smoothly between the two. Whilst some of the poems are comic, most tend towards an emotional punch. This show typifies a fundamentally Irish sensibility, juxtaposing the harrowing and the hilarious to great effect. If poetry isn’t your thing, then it will be by the end of this 70 minutes!
