PADDY YOUNG ‘WILL SIR BE LAUGHING ALONE’
plus support
Whelan’s Main Venue • Tue 27th October 2026
The award-winning stand-up and star of Saturday Night Live UK heads out on tour with a brand new show.
You’re born alone, you die alone. That’s true enough. But what happened to that part in the middle?
Big Year for Pad. SNL (UK, but still a big deal), a bunch of awards (hate bringing them up), and plenty of bit-parts to boot. But what’s it all about?
I’ve fallen in love more times than you’ve had hot dinners and I’ve fumbled every single one of them. If you think I’ve learnt my lesson you couldn’t be wronger. I’m telling you, some of these baddies have got me winning staring competitions with the ceiling.
But I don’t even think about that shit anymore.
Some of my ideas are so funny that they scare me, so GOD knows how you lot are gonna feel !!
As seen on: Mitchell & Webb Are Not Helping, Everyone Else Burns, and his own stand-up special Hungry. Horny. Scared.
