Be warned ! Stand back! Colum McDonnell is Ireland’s fastest rising comedy star, and it’s about time too! A stand up comedian and comedy writer widely known for his appearances with the dynamic duo Podge and Rodge both in their television and live shows in Dublin’s Vicar Street and beyond.

What Colum McDonnell lacks in stature, he gains in laughter. The “wee” man hails from Dundalk, a small independent principality on the Irish border, ruled by their royal family, The Corrs. Colum began his career in his home town, and quickly established himself as a firm favorite on the Irish comedy circuit, with his unusual and often self depreciative outlook on family, life, love and the pain of being the last living hobbit in Ireland.

Colum has played all the major clubs in Ireland, and has toured with the likes of Ardal O’Hanlon, Jason Byrne and Colin Murphy. He has also been featured on ’The World Stands Up’ on The Paramount Comedy Channel.
