Description

He's 27, gay and riddled with dyspraxia. Dan's had a big year, quitting his job as a dinner lady, going full-time in comedy and finally leaving home, yet somehow he still feels he's completely going under. The reigning BBC New Comedy Awards winner and British Comedian of the Year presents his gag-heavy, high-energy debut hour. Tour support for Micky Flanagan and Jamali Maddix. As seen on BBC, Channel 4, Comedy Central, Dave and ITV2. 'Raucously entertaining' (Guardian). 'A force-of-nature who sweeps the room up in his exhilarating performance into a frenzy of laughter' (Chortle.co.uk).

Dan Tiernan is a blast with a formidable stage presence and a constant stream of great jokes. Clearly one to watch and I suspect will only get better.

Hilarious from start to finish. Belly laughs from everyone in the room.

Broadway Baby (5/5 stars) 116 days ago

Going Under is a very clever show that finds the light-heartedness in the dark. Dan Tiernan is going to be the newcomer to watch this year.

The Telegraph (4/5 stars) 120 days ago

The show’s quality befits a winner of the 2022 BBC New Comedy Award – it’s furious yet friendly, full of bait and switch, and a thrilling rollercoaster ride when it comes to pacing – particularly by the time we get to the heartfelt ending, whose honesty brings things back to earth with a bang.
