Kila, Chris De Burgh among guests at Dermot Morgan fundraiser

Kila, Chris De Burgh, Barry Devlin and Shay Healy are among the musical turns on June 9 when Vicar St. plays host to An Audience Without Dermot Morgan.
A fundraising event to provide an annual bursary for emerging Irish comedy writers, it also features the comedic talents of Ardal O’Hanlon, Barry Murphy, Kevin Gildea, Joe Rooney, Paul Tylak, Michael Redmond, Dermot Carmody and Morgan Jones.
“It’s so hard to get started in comedy, as indeed in all manner of producing art,” says the late Father Ted man’s son, Bobby Morgan. “The Dermot Morgan Foundation will be pioneering, providing the support for young writers to have the time and space to develop their work – a useful weapon against the wolves at the comedian’s door.”
Tickets priced €35 are on sale now.
