Comedy review: Louis CK, 3Arena, Dublin
The last time Louis CK played Dublin, he was bombing in support to Des Bishop at the Carlsberg Comedy Carnival in 2008. How times have changed. A couple of critically acclaimed TV series later (the practically eponymous Louie and the online-only, lo-fi Horace and Pete) and there is barely a spare seat to be had at the cavernous 3Arena on a Monday night.
Though his standup isn’t as freeform existential as his TV shows, there’s an air of the Seinfeld assuredness about Louis as he goes about hitting his usual midlife concerns: Marriage, sex, divorce, daughters, depression, and death.
