Whelan’s Main Venue • Sun 14th July 2024
Dreamgun return to Whelan’s with a new Film Read of Toy Story. Film Reads takes your favourite movies and completely rewrites with jokes and nonsense. Unrehearsed, unprepared and performed by an award winning ensemble, most of whom have seen the films at least once.
A comedy conglomerate of Stephen Colfer, Gavin Drea and James McDonnell.
They write and perform the award winning Dreamgun Film Reads, a comedy show and podcast where they take a beloved film script and stuff it full of jokes and nonsense. Film Reads has won Dublin Fringe’s Best Ensemble Award, was one of BBC’s Top 10 Culture Podcasts of 2018 and the fourth best reviewed comedy show at Edinburgh Fringe 2019. Selling out houses at Edinburgh Fringe, Dublin Fringe, Vodafone Comedy Festival, the Cat Laughs and Vicar Street.
In 2022 Dreamgun premiered their new hyper genre comedy Dreamgun Video at Edinburgh and Dublin Fringe and their new Dracula based comedy Dreamgun Dracula at the Bram Stoker Festival.
Dreamgun’s original short films, including Millennials, Gym Gravy and Back in Town were viewed on people’s phones at house parties a million times in 2016.
