Jake O’Kane: The Inappropriate Tour

Roll up, roll up, the Jake O’Kane circus is back in town. After a decade of sell-out tours, Jake is back with his annual multimedia round-up of the year’s events in NI and beyond. It’s going to be a no-holds-barred fun fest of puncturing political pomposity. Nobody is safe as Jake turns his keen wit on himself and his personal peculiarities. As always, he’s ably supported by ringmaster two-stroke Terry McHugh. Don’t miss this colossal combination of comedic clownery – book early, book often.
