King of Commedy
The Course.......at the PAVILION GLASGOW!

Following his SMASH HIT comedy 'Mrs Brown's Last Wedding' Ireland's 'King of Comedy', BRENDAN O'CARROLL, returned to the Pavilion with his hilarious comedy 'THE COURSE'.

A group of 'no-hope', unemployed Dubliners signed on for a Positive Mental Attitude Course run by a conman.

They  learned how to sell cheap insurance policies by the sack load - £1,000 per week... on experience required! The  American owned insurance company, Major Accident, sent a supervisor to inspect what they have been paying for. He was going to shut down the Dublin office and sack the tutor unless our hapless recruits could successfully pass 'The Course'.

If you remember Brendan in 'Mrs Browne's Last Wedding', then see a clip from his forthcoming movie, 'Agnes Browne'. Agnes is played by Angelica Huston - some difference from Brendan's portrayal...

What the Public said:

"BRILLIANT. THE TEARS WERE STILL RUNNING DOWN MY FACE WHEN I GOT INTO THE STREET. I WILL RECOMMEND IT TO ALL MY FRIENDS. COULD YOU ASK BRENDAN IF HE IS CONSIDERING RETURNING TO GLASGOW WITH HIS STAND UP COMEDY ROUTINE, IF SO I WILL BE FIRST IN THE QUEUE FOR TICKETS. HE IS A GENIUS."

THE  SCOTSMAN  (14th February 2000)

"...a laugh-a-thon for two and a half hours - go and see it. The script is as fast as it is funny."  
 
IRISH WORLD

"...a runaway success... when are we going to be able to but shares in this man?"
