As one rave review after another came in from Tommy’s recent Crooked Man tours of Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Ireland it became obvious that it was time to capture this moment in Tommy’s career where most feel he is at his finest. 
However we didn’t want to follow that same old format of shooting a big thousand seater theatre, bright lights, big crowd. We wanted to do something more interesting, more true to the art of stand up, something different.....
On Thursday July 28th Tommy performed two shows at the infamous home of real stand up in Ireland and a place that plays an integral part in the history of Tommy’s career, Brian Coughlan’s City Limits Comedy Club in Cork. Flying in from the UK with his crew was the man with the vision for this project, British director, comedian, actor and writer best known for his role as Maurice Moss in The IT Crowd, Richard Ayoade. His writing and directing film debut “Submarine”has been the independent film of the summer with the LA Times deciding that“Richard Ayoade captures the uncapturable”. His work with the Arctic Monkeys has been considered among critics original, refreshing , stylish and exciting.
