Voicebox Comedy: The Movie

Voicebox Comedy Svengali, superstar poet/comedian Marcus Keeley wanted to capture the surreal humour of Voicebox Comedy nights at The Loft, Belfast with a docudrama feel and enlisted services of the great Stephen Mullan.

Since 2008, Voicebox Comedy has provided a great space for alternative comedy and experimentation, both in general and for me personally. The night allowed me to create and perform strange characters such as Defective Deckard 237, Dermot H. Dark Materials and Livid Lorcan, which I wouldn’t have done otherwise. (Well, I might have done them in my bedroom to the usual action figure audience). Some will reappear in my current show Rural Irish Geek at the Black Box, Belfast on February 7th. This recording (on October 30th 2015) was prescient as the Loft was forced to close its doors but Voicebox Comedy will resurface in some form somewhere, it always does. In the mean time here’s a glimpse into our bizarre Friday night BYOB comedy world: Part One: Featuring Marcus Keeley, Brian Kielt, Adam Laughlin, Graeme Watson, Mary Flanigan and Caitlin Magnall-Kearns.

Part Two: John Patrick Higgins, Ruaidhrí Ward , Lorcan McGrane, George Firehorse and Marcus Keeley. Filmed and edited by Stephen Mullan. Recorded on 30th October 2015 at LOFT Belfast.

Some dates for the Diary Hello there. Some dates for your diary, well mostly for my diary so I don't forget them. As you can see my diary is the epitome of a responsible adult that does business.

Wednesday January 27th:

Monaghan Arts January Showcase , will be hosting the first showcase of 2016 with bog oak sculptor Brian Smyth, photographer Barbs Gr, film-maker Mark McNally, and singer Eimear Quinn at Market House, Monaghan

Sunday February 7th:

Lorcan McGrane: Rural Irish Geek! I'll be bringing my new show to the Black Box courtesy of Graeme Watson's The Infinite Jest, can't wait to bring new stuff honed in the heady alternative comedy mind cauldron of Marcus Keeley's Voicebox Comedy to a wider audience (and aren't we all a little little wider after the Christmas...a little joke there*)

Thursday February 25th As part of the NI Science Festival I'll be taking part in the live recording of an exciting new podcast series. 'Level Up Human' at the Black Box also featuring comedian Matthew Collins and some top scientists to discuss cybernetics, post-humanism, and the future of humanity. May have to dig out some of my old academic writings.

*The jokes in the show aren't like that.
