After Dinner Speaker - Keith Farnan
One of the UK's best-known celebrity entertainers
Sharp, fearless and brilliantly intelligent, Keith Farnan is one of Ireland’s most compelling stand-up comedians. A former solicitor who swapped the courtroom for the stage, Keith brings razor-sharp wit and thought-provoking humour to every performance.
He first made waves in Dublin at The Laughter Lounge, where his smart, socially aware comedy quickly earned him headline status and a reputation as a rising star. His leap from law to laughter has since become part of his signature appeal, a unique perspective that fuels his distinctive voice on stage.
Now a major presence on the UK and international comedy circuit, Keith has performed at leading venues including the Royal Festival Hall and Soho Theatre. His style blends intelligent observation with masterful storytelling, delivering comedy that is as insightful as it is hilarious
His critically acclaimed show Money Money Money was a standout hit at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival before being filmed as a documentary and broadcast in Ireland, further cementing his reputation for ambitious, idea-driven comedy.
Keith’s television appearances include Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, Comedy Central’s Live at The Comedy Store and BBC3, platforms that showcase his quick thinking, commanding stage presence and unmistakable wit.
Having toured across Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East, Keith Farnan continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Whether in an intimate comedy club or a sold-out theatre, expect bold ideas, big laughs and comedy with substance.
