Pat and Faye Shortt return to Kildare with sell out show

Due to popular demand, Pat and Faye Shortt are returning to the Riverbank with the final leg of the tour.
The show is a collection of mad characters that won over audiences in venues throughout Ireland, Northern Ireland and the UK.
Knuckle Down shows off the incredible talent of these two performers, as they glide seamlessly from stand up to hilarious characterisation of everyday Irish people.
They have the genius of taking everyday ordinary situations and making us laugh at the mundane.
Previously described as being indigenously Irish in their approach and observation of characters. Knuckle Down doesn’t disappoint.
Characters such as “Michael” (Pat Shortt) the hapless builder (Followed weekly on Tik Tok, X, Insta and Facebook by hundreds of thousands) seems to have the answer to all things that are wrong in the world and shares the advice gifted to him by his late grandmother from Tipperary.
Another outrageous character is the “mother of the child” (Faye Shortt) at the school railings waiting to pick up her child PJ, it’s not like her at all to talk bad about anyone but she just can’t help herself, sharing her views on the school principal and her tummy tucking friend back from Turkey.
The sharp wit and physical comedy genius of this comedic duo will have you in pain with laughter. Don’t miss this final opportunity to catch this hilarious sell-out show before it closes.
The show will be held in the Riverbank Arts Centre, Newbridge on Friday, January 24. Tickets €30.
