Comedy in English - John O'Keeffe - Functional Mess

April 3rd, one of Ireland's top comedians brings his solo show to Xafarix!

Comedy in English - John O'Keeffe - Functional Mess

Are you a functional mess? Are you daily wondering what the point of your life is? Do you have a better relationship with your postman than your family? Are all your relationships toxic and meaningless and delightful? Well, you are clearly a mess. And this show is for you. Sometimes sweet, sometimes dark, but always funny - join award-winning Irish comedian John O'Keeffe as he explains his chequered dating life, impossible family, self-diagnosed ADHD and his flimsy, threadbare hopes for the future.

"So funny" - Wendy Liebman

"Clever. Funny. And a functional mess" - Steve Hostetter

"Classic stand up... he's a great showman" - Ruben Rajah

"Savage" - Amos Gill

Edinburgh Fringe 2025 Reviews:
One4Review – 4 stars **** – “His delivery is sharp as a tack and the jokes just keep on coming.”
TheWeeReview – 4 stars **** – “A talented comic…It’s [his] darker material about his mental health and relationship history where O’Keeffe really shines.”
