Money’s a big laughing matter
Kilkenomics is this weekend’s offering from festival city Kilkenny and brings together well-known comics such as Des Bishop, Neil Delamere and Karl Spain; economists such as David McWilliams and commentators Fintan O’Toole, Constantin Gurdgiev and Olivia O’Leary.
Given our economy’s underwhelming performance in recent times, black comedy is likely to be high on the agenda for the four-day event which is aimed at blending “insightful economic analysis and commentary with hilarious comic observations,” say those behind the festival.
