Some of Ireland’s funniest comedians will be performing in Cork City for a special fundraising event organised by Cork City FC. ‘City ‘Til I Die…Laughing’ is taking place in the Everyman on Thursday, October 31st and proceeds from the ticket sales will go towards the club’s Women’s and Academy Teams.
Cork native Andrew Ryan will be joined by fellow Cork man Chris Kent with Emma Doran, Shane Todd, and John Colleary also on the bill.
Andrew’s nephew Louie Ryan is a goalkeeper in the Cork City FC Academy. Speaking about the event Andrew said; “My nephew is a massive football fan and he loves to kick a ball around whenever he can. Being part of the Cork City FC Academy is really important to him and I can see the huge benefits it brings, both on and off the pitch. I am delighted to be able to support the Academy and I would encourage everyone to come along to the Everyman for this event which will be a night of great comedy from some of the best comedians in the country.”
Anthony O’Sullivan, Commercial Director at Cork City FC, said; “We’re really excited about the comedy night and I would like to thank Andrew and all the other comedians for supporting us in this special fundraiser. The Women’s Team and the Academy are going from strength to strength and we are seeing an increase in interest from the public, particularly from young girls who want to play football. It is important for us to be able to support these teams so that they can continue to develop and improve.”
