Andrew Ryan: Honest Capacity - The Everyman Cork

What to Expect

Following his sold-out 2024 tour, comedian Andrew Ryan brings his new show Honest Capacity to The Everyman on MacCurtain Street. The show digs into the contradictions of his own life: outwardly a settled, confident newlywed and golfer, while constantly undermining himself with baffling choices behind the scenes. Expect stories about pet ownership, social awkwardness and everyday frustration, told with the rapid-fire, self-aware delivery that has built his profile as much through comedy podcasts and clips as through live touring.

Ryan hosts Q Radio’s Breakfast Show and has appeared on RTE’s The Two Johnnies Late Night Lock In and BBC’s The Blame Game, with his clips racking up more than 50 million social media views, giving him a following that stretches well beyond people who have seen him live before. The show runs two hours with an interval, and the age recommendation is 16+ for strong language, putting it in line with most touring adult stand-up shows at the venue.

Given the broadcast profile Ryan has built through radio and television appearances, Honest Capacity is likely to draw a mixed crowd of longtime comedy club regulars and people who know him primarily from Q Radio or his podcast clips, which tends to make for a broader, more varied audience than a purely comedy-circuit show. The Everyman’s mid-sized auditorium suits this kind of personality-led, story-heavy stand-up well, giving the room enough intimacy for the more personal material to land.
