Ellen O’Reilly

Ellen O’Reilly is a musician who turned to stand-up after her life went a bit topsy-turvy. Expect some very filthy stories, bad language and sing-alongy-jokey songs that are not for the font hearted! Described as the female Bill Bailey. Ellen is sure to leave ya weeping, cringing and releasing much mirth. We might need to put down some towels.

“Fearless in tackling difficult subjects with razor sharp wit” – Mark Maier, Comedian
