About Ed Byrne: Tragedy Plus Time
From the quote attributed to Mark Twain, humour is defined as Tragedy Plus Time. Come and join Ed Byrne as he tests that formula by mining the most tragic event in his life for laughs.
5-star reviews came in thick and fast alongside outstanding critical acclaim for this exceptionally funny, ‘Best Reviewed Stand-Up Show at Edinburgh 2023’ (British Comedy Guide).
As seen hosting Live at the Apollo and regular appearances on QI and Mock the Week (BBC).
