Des Bishop
COMEDY
'One Day You'll Understand
Saturday
04 February

Time: 8pm
Price: €25/20

Des Bishop is old enough now to know that when his Mom used her
favourite expression, “one day you will understand”, that she was often
correct. However, sometimes she was just hiding from having to explain the
complexities of life.
What a great metaphor for the confusing world we live in; from Trump to
Isis, Facebook feeds to conspiracy theories and the ever-confusing battle of
the sexes. Through laughter, Des attempts to make sense of the world
today and life in general.
