In 1935 Erwin Schrodinger placed comedian Jason Byrne in a venue with an audience and closed the doors. Was there a show or NO SHOW? For those outside without tickets there was simultaneously a show and NO SHOW. Don’t be outside. Watch the master of comic creativity and audience interaction create a show from NO SHOW.

Jason Byrne, half man, half natural disaster. Over the course of his accident-prone life Jason has been rebuilt from the ground up. Bits removed, metal pins, new knee, and an eye that’s been treated, over the years, by the medical profession like a game of Pong. This all culminated last year with heart surgery, twice! He enjoyed it so much he went back for more. Join the most gifted live comedian on the planet as he invites you to laugh at his misfortune. If he tried to say Schadenfreude, he’d probably dislocate his tongue.

Jason Byrne is back for more comedy chaos, celebrating 25 years(!) of consecutive touring. Audience Precipitation is a brand-new fun, happy and joyful show from 'the outright king of live comedy' (The Times). Jason has learnt over the past few years that we all need to 'play' a bit more in our lives. With this in mind, Jason will do what he does best: connect with his audience in a way that no other comic can. Expect the Irish funnyman to invite - or drag, as it has been known in the past - people up onto the stage and make a "holy show of them", as they'd say in Ireland. Jason's Audience Precipitation tour will be a laugh-out-loud, must-see show with a light drizzle of audience participation... ooohhh, clever that!

During Lockdown, Jason Byrne discovered a live recording he had made in 2016 at Vicar St in Dublin. It was professionally recorded and upon delivery the hard drives had been mislaid. When it was rediscovered we immediately set about editing and finishing the show. And the final product is a wonderful example of the "Outright King of Live Comedy" on top of his game. It's also a fine reminder of what life was like before the pandemic. The show contains scenes of hugging, kissing, high fiving, dry riding, casual exchange of bodily fluids and a 1000 people packed into a room laughing their hoops off.

Morten, a ten-year-old boy, is shrunk to the size of an insect due to a magical fog gun. Soon, he finds himself on his makeshift model ship sailing through a flooded cafe.

Jason Byrne returns to the stage with his brand new stand up show, Special Eye. Recorded in front of a packed out crowd at Dublin’s famous Vicar Street Theatre, he conjures up hilarity with his unique take on life and infamous audience interaction. It is Jason’s inspired and original brand of hysterical wit that demonstrates why he is the biggest selling comedian at the Edinburgh Comedy Festival and the ‘outright king of live comedy’ (The Times).

A host of great comic talents, on stage and in sketches, gather together at London's O2 Arena to play to an audience of 16,000 in aid of the charity Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Filmed live at Vicar Street Theatre, this one-off show is a mix of Jason’s record breaking Edinburgh Festival set alongside some brand-new-to-DVD material including his famous quickly, quickly, quickly request from the wife! Even members of the audience aren’t safe as Jason shows off some magic, teaches the Riverdance and exposes a couple in the audience who are having an affair.

For the first time ever on DVD Jason Byrne, one of the hottest comics around, brings his Out of the Box Tour 2006 live into your living room. Filmed at Dublin's world famous Vicar Street during his sell out European tour, Jason's inspired, original brand of high energy lunacy takes his audience on the ride of their lives. His fast and unpredictable style, fused with an array of offbeat props makes this a helter-skelter show.
