About Ryan Cullen: Cullen in the Name of - Comedy Festival

RYAN CULLEN: CULLEN IN THE NAME OF!

If Milton Jones is the Obi-Wan Kenobi of one-liners, then Ryan Cullen is Darth Vader. This Donegal-born comic delivers with an economy of words, an unapologetic style, and surgical precision. His near-the-knuckle one-liners elicit gasps, laughter, and applause, making him an act you'll be talking about long after seeing him.​

Cullen has rapidly become one of Ireland and the UK's most talked-about comedians. He was runner-up in Irish Comedian of the Year and has made appearances on BBC Scotland’s The Comedy Underground, BBC NI’s Late Licence, as well as on RTÉ and MTV. A festival favourite, he's graced the stages of Altitude Comedy Festival, Vodafone Comedy Carnivals in Dublin and Galway, Electric Picnic, Otherlands in Scotland, and Snowbombing in Austria. ​

“Big laughs, his material has the ruthlessness of a young Jimmy Carr and the sexual turpitude of Jim Jefferies at his most priapic. Extraordinary stuff.”

— Kate Copstick, The Scotsman​

“Cullen is one of my favourite comedians. Hilarious and so dark you think ‘How the f**k did he end up like this?’”

— Daniel Sloss​
