WILLA WHITE: DEAD MAN TALKING Following a year which saw him sell out both the 3Olympia Theatre and The Gaiety Theatre (the first comedian to do so in over 10 years), Dublin comedian Willa White will debut his brand new stand-up show Dead Man Talking at the Abbey Tavern, Howth on 4th April 2026. Willa White has exploded in popularity over the past 18 months, quickly marking himself out as one of the biggest names in the Irish comedy circuit. Having sold over 10,000 tickets to date. As well as comedy, Willa has taken to acting, performing in the multi-award-winning production The Examination with Irish theatre company Brokentalkers, and just completed a three-night run in The Ambassador Theatre (a venue at which Willa became the first ever comedian to hold a residency). He has also taken to podcasting, seeing his show You Must Be Jokin’, which he co-hosts with fellow Dublin comedian Eric Lalor, fly to the top of the Irish podcast charts. With support slots alongside Jason Byrne, Tommy Tiernan, Kevin Bridges and John Bishop ticked off the list, Willa is ready to kick start the newest phase of his comedy journey. His newest show Dead Man Talking will see Willa explore his belief that he realistically should have been dead long before the family and friends who’ve gone before him, after attempting to take his own life in 1991. Dead Man Talking will see Willa reflect on memories of those who have passed, and the fun times they shared on this rollercoaster we call life. This is a show not to be missed!
