Meet Aoife Dunne, viral sketch creator, writer, storyteller and now one of the fastest rising comedians in Ireland - in less than a year of comedy, she’s gone from headlining the Dead Rabbit in NYC, to opening for Katie Boyle on tour in the US, and in Ireland for the likes of Emma Doran, Danny O Brien, and Natalie Aukar. Fresh off performing at the biggest festivals in Ireland this summer (Electric Picnic and the Paddy Power Comedy festival), Aoife is currently living in Amsterdam to work on her debut solo show which will be premiering at the Barcelona Fringe Festival.

Don’t miss Aoife Dunne’s Fringe debut, where storytelling and comedy collide in a wild ride through grief and life’s absurdity!

Aoife Dunne’s one-woman solo show is a heartfelt and humorous exploration of grief, identity, and connection. Following the loss of her mother at 23, Aoife, now 37 (but 27 on the inside) reflects on the highs and lows of navigating loss while also reclaiming her sense of self as a recovering repressed Catholic. Drawing from her storytelling background, honed at the prestigious Mezrab school in Amsterdam, and her comedic flair as a rising star in Dublin’s vibrant comedy scene, Aoife mixes humour, absurdity, and vulnerability. Her interactive performance takes audiences on a wild heartwarming (and somewhat raunchy) journey through grief, the unexpected gifts it brings, and the challenges of shaking off old beliefs to embrace a new path forward.

Fasten your corsets and button your breeches for this raucous Regency-era romp through the times and tribulations of a manor house straight out of a Jane Austen novel. But beware, for beneath the surface of elegance and propriety lies a hidden darkness, where the echo of whispers, secrets, and forbidden desires lie in waiting.

Immerse yourself in a world where laughter collides with terror, where light-heartedness meets the macabre. Prepare to be thrilled, enchanted, and horrified in equal measure at the improvised play with a terrible end.

For millennia, men have written about sex and their work has been called "great literature". But when women do it they're accused of only writing about what they know. All The Men Are Going To Hate Me follows one woman's attempt to write the great novel of the 21st century (about all the men she's slept with).

Part stand-up, part erotic poetry, part interpretive dance, this show is an odyssey through time and sex, exploring the line between experience and fiction. 'Big, bold, unapologetically clever' **** (LostInTheatreland.co.uk).

As soon as Maria Telnikoff bursts onto the Buttercup stage at Underbelly Bristo Square in a frenetic, gyrating dance to Charli xcx’s ‘Guess’, she totally commands the space with her charisma and physical comedy skills.

It’s an energetic start, and she maintains this electric energy throughout her 60-minute show All The Men Are Going To Hate Me.

After she’s got that dance out of her system, Telnikoff introduces us to the concept of the show: she wants to write the next great work of literature — about all the men she’s slept with.

It’s a simple but clever framework that allows her to break up and act out each of these stories as individual ‘chapters’, which she punctuates with a series of placards.

As she takes us through the journey of her sexual history, we’re introduced to characters such as “The Photographer”, “The Feminist”, and — worst of all — “The Poet”.

Tamer Today

Tamer Kattan was born an outsider and that’s where he stayed. Perhaps that’s why Berlin feels like home. An Egyptian-born American dropped into a family of Muslims, Christians and Jews, made him an ideal fit as Writer/Producer for the soon to be released animated series, “Tantrum Jesus”. A multi-award winning international comedian with TV and commercial credits in the United States, Berlin and UK, Tamer has a uniquely deep understanding of the human condition. This is one comic you do not want to miss live.
