Still Ready to Believe You
Come and celebrate 30 years of Ghostbusters with Irish actor and comedian Des O'Gorman who will take you on a trip down memory lane, revisiting one of the most popular franchises of the 1980's. It's your chance to meet a real life Egon Spengler impersonator as he explores all things Ghostbusters from the movies and the merchandise to the cartoons and the comic books - and, of course, the forthcoming all-female remake.
Ghostbusters Comedy Show With Des O'Gorman
The spooktacularly successful Ghostbusters franchise has captured the imagination of audiences around the world and now Des O'Gorman will help you relive some amazing memories as his comedy show takes you on a tour of the past, complete with slime and ghostly gunk!
"It becomes quickly clear from Des O'Gorman's routine that he is a tried and tested Ghostbuster fan. This is not a comedian leaping on the bandwagon. Sure, anyone can claim to be a fan but this was the very first public performance of 'Still Ready to Believe You' and this would have been the night when his knowledge looked the most rusty. There was never any danger of a fumble.
That's not to say you need to know Ghostbusters like an otaku in order to enjoy the gig. This is a stand up that draws on life experience as a kid growing up, that riffs off the audience and makes use of multimedia. It helps hugely if you know the movie, of course. It's hard to imagine anyone who hated the movie would turn up a gig called 'Still Ready to Believe You: Celebrating 30 years of Ghostbusters' but if that happens I doubt your opinion of the franchise will change."
