Ed Byrne: Different Class

Comedy.co.nz productions presents

Ed Byrne

DIFFERENT CLASS

Ireland’s master of Stand-Up Comedy returns to New Zealand in 2009 with his critically acclaimed new show that is arguable his best ever.

“Ed Byrne is a class apart. Not pretentious, not offensive, not surreal, just a spinner of wallopingly funny yarns about life and the obstacles encountered while attempting to live it.” Evening Standard UK Sept 2008

Following his debut in New Zealand at the 1997 International Comedy Festival, Ed Byrne has established a huge legion of fans across the country. He was last seen here on a sell-out tour in 2007.

In 2008 Ed launched his most successful tour ever in the U.K. with his new show ‘Different Class’. His personally chosen support act on that tour was top Wellington Pro comedian, Ben Hurley, the winner of the 2004 Billy T Award for Comedy. Hurley himself agrees that this is Ed’s best show ever.

“This superb Irish comic returns with a new show about marriage, class, the youth of today and anything else that strikes him as humorous. He's in a great streak of form at the moment.” TimeOUT UK
