The CoCo Comedy Club are proud to present Eric Lalor His first foray into comedy was a bit unusual. In 2006, as one of the participants of RTÉ Two’s Des Bishop’s Joy In The Hood, his first ever gig was filmed on his home turf of Ballymun in Dublin and broadcast to the entire nation. Des went to Ballymun in search of new comedic talent and discovered Eric. Des was so impressed with what he saw that he brought Eric on his record-breaking, nationwide Fitting In tour. Opening the show at Live at the Marquee in Cork, Eric performed to 5,000 people. Since then, Eric has gone from strength to strength and has now garnered a reputation in Irish comedy as a consistent performer, making him one of the most sought after acts in the country. His first year in the highly competitive world of stand-up comedy saw him win the Comedy Cellar and Capital Comedy Club’s Best Newcomer Award. Eric has since been crowned Irish Standup of the Year two years in a row by the readers of entertainment.ie. “Inimitable and hilariously funny” EVENING HERALD “Keeps on improving. His joke construction reminds me of John Maloney” BARRY MURPHY, APRÉS MATCH “One of the things that I am most proud of is knowing that we helped Eric to his true calling. A pure natural” DES BISHOP T?he rest of the line-up is equally stacked! Including Resident MC Cornelius Patrick O'Sullivan, who is just off multiple performances at the Everyman Theatre. Cornelius always brings tons of zany energy and is notorious for picking on our crowds. He is joined by resident comedians Daniel Lukas and Aaron Mac.
