Emma Doran - Dún Laoghaire Comedy Festival - Nov 5
Dublin
Smash hit Irish comedian, best-selling author, podcast host and viral online star Emma Doran hits the road once again taking her brand-new stand-up show Emmaculate across the UK and Ireland in 2025/26 and she is coming to Dún Laoghaire Comedy Festival at The Purty Kitchen on Nov 5th, 2026.
There's no such thing as a perfect family, but she wouldn't want one anyway...
The many trials and tribulations of Emma’s blended family are laid bare, womanhood examined, and relationships put to the test in this witty, rambunctious show from one of Ireland’s most beloved stand-ups. Strap in for a night to remember, jam-packed with razor-sharp observations, riotous on-stage antics and conspiratorial gossipmongering.
