Summary

Master of miscellany, Neil Delamere has a huge presence in his home country of Ireland and across the UK, boasting a style of comedy where every single second is packed full of laughs. We talk about the difference between a good comic and a great comic; the type of comedy that piques Neil’s interests; and why he thinks storytelling is the purest, and most powerful, form of entertainment. We also learn how he combats the writing process of a tour show vs an Edinburgh Fringe hour; including the content and the title, and the all important ending. 


12 minutes of extra content available exclusively to the Insider’s Club include Neil’s tricks of the trades for TV appearances, writing topical jokes under pressure, and a great tip on how to trust yourself as a comic…
