National Gallery of Ireland Public Tour: Comedy
National Gallery of Ireland Public Tour: Comedy
Join Underthings – Improv, an improv and sketch duo, for a tour of the Gallery with a twist! Underthings, like all comedians, are subconsciously determined to make themselves the focus of everything. But, for this tour, they will try their best to focus on the beautiful works of art, and not on their own petty existences. Spoiler: they will fail! After all, artists can be petty too. They will also attempt to deal with some art-history conundrums: Who’s the best prophet? Who has feuds? What’s that guy doing with his crutch? Does any artist suspect they’re a genius?
Meet your tour guide in our Courtyard, near the Merrion Square information desk.
