Multi-award-winning comedian, actor, and writer Ardal O’Hanlon is coming to Hangzhou!

 

Perhaps best known for his role as Dougal in cult hit sitcom Father Ted (Channel 4), the Irish comedy legend is also a star of Death in Paradise (BBC One) and My Hero (BBC One), as well as releasing two Top Ten stand-up DVDs, a one-man special for Comedy Central (US), and regular appearances as headliner and host of Live at the Apollo (BBC).

Besides his prolific TV and stand-up career, Ardal was also nominated for the prestigious Olivier Award for his 2014 role in The Weir, as well as See You Next Tuesday and God of Carnage.  His bestselling debut novel, The Talk of the Town was featured in the influential tome 1001 Books to Read Before You Die.

Since early 2019, Ardal has been touring his show The Showing Off Must Go On in the UK and Ireland, and due to popular demand has extended the tour into Asia in 2020.
