Deadly Craic Comedy Club and McHughs Venue CANCELLED

McHugh’s Venue and Deadly Craic Events proudly present Drogheda’s original monthly comedy night — Deadly Craic Comedy Club — returning on Friday, May 29th for another unforgettable evening of top-class stand-up comedy.

For just around €10, enjoy a huge night of laughs on the last Friday of every month, featuring some of Ireland’s finest comedians in an intimate live setting. This month’s superstar headliner is the incredible Sophia Wren.

Sophia Wren is one of the most exciting and fast-rising voices on the Irish comedy scene. In just two years, she has performed on some of Ireland’s biggest comedy stages including Paddy Power Comedy Festival, Electric Picnic, and more. She has also opened for international comedy heavyweights such as Finn Taylor and Daniel Sloss at Dublin’s iconic Vicar Street.

Her debut show, Princess Melancholy, enjoyed a sold-out run at Dublin Fringe Festival before earning critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe 2025, where it received ★★★★ from The Scotsman. Following sold-out performances in Whelan’s Dublin, Sophia is now touring the show across Ireland and beyond.

“Lyrically and hilariously filthy stand-up… entertainingly forthcoming.” – The Scotsman
“Wren is striking on stage.” – Sunday Independent
“An intriguing surrealist.” – Irish Times

Alongside the headline act, audiences can expect a killer supporting lineup featuring some of the country’s best emerging comedy talent. Hosting the night is the brilliantly chaotic and crowd-favourite MC Joe Dowlin, guiding you through the madness with his trademark energy and quick-fire humour.

If you’re looking for a night packed with laughter, great atmosphere, and some of the best live comedy Ireland has to offer, this is one you won’t want to miss.
