Comedy Special – Danny Ward: The Holiday

Doors 7.00pm. Starts 8.00pm. Adv ticket £16. OTD ticket £19.

Meet Danny, before he was an award-winning stand-up comedian he worked on the on the 2006 Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz romcom The Holiday, and this is a rather lovely piece of storytelling based on the film, but much else besides.

After going to LA himself he realised the similarities between his own vacation and the plot of the film.

Come and hear all the behind the scenes gossip about (almost) everyone’s favourite Christmas movie and find out just why his holiday last year bore so many similarities to the plot of the film.

The sleeper hit of the 2025 Edinburgh fringe, The Holiday won the Ish Comedy Award Panel Prize for Best Show.

“A rather lovely piece of storytelling…witty, well constructed with self-deprecating charm and emotional heft…an elegant and funny hour…..exceptional” **** (Chortle.co.uk)
