Brendan Grace fit for Mullingar show
The last two weeks has been a most trying period for Ireland's best loved family comedian Brendan Grace, but this week it has been announced that the comedy grand master is well again and will be set for his annual Christmas show in the Greville Arms Hotel on January 5.Brendan, who suffers from Type 2 Diabetes for many years now and very recently developed a severe foot infection which has been successfully treated at the Blackrock Clinic.The legendary comedian is delighted that he has got the go-ahead to commence his annual after-Christmas Irish Tour which runs from December 27 until February 14.Brendan's latest show features some brand new material and some old favourites from his vast repertoire over the last 39 years. His sense of timing and ability to read an audience is without equal. A brilliant character actor, his "Bottler" character is legendary and is now featured at every performance.Apart from his obvious star quality in all aspects of his performance Brendan's drawing power is enormous and the "House Full" sign is the norm rather than the exception at his concerts. The genial Dubliner has a very special bond with Irish audiences and is much loved by young and old not least because he gives very generously of his time after each Concert. The "Meet and Greet" is now very much part and parcel of each show and Brendan's very down to earth approach is much appreciated by all.In more recent times Brendan has managed to attract a younger audience mainly because the content of his show is very family-friendly, and also because of his hilarious appearance in Father Ted when he played the part of a drinking, smoking, troublemaker extraordinaire Father Fintan Stack.As always and especially nowadays it is advisable to secure your Brendan Grace ticket when he appears in your area. You can catch his new show at the Greville Arms Hotel in Mullingar on Tuesday, January 5.
