“I ran an event for Galway Gay Pride, it was our first ever comedy night and that more or less pushed me towards branded comedy, rather than various venues without any direction,” said Martin ‘Beanz’ Warde.
“I have always had a bit of a grá for Limerick,” added Martin, “I performed at Limerick Pride, and I got to know a lot of people from Limerick. I wanted to go back there to perform again, and we saw an opening in the market.”
After speaking with the Library Bar in Limerick, the company was so impressed with the venue they asked if the bar would be interested in holding a monthly comedy night. Martin Warde described how the Limerick venue was happy to host the night, and it coincided with a Pieta House fundraiser on the inaugural night.
“I myself have lost a family member through suicide, coming up to the second anniversary this month. It is something close to my heart, so I am happy to let that be the launchpad. If the Library Bar, as businessmen, are willing to get behind that, we can definitely build on that,” Martin concluded.
Tribal Komedy’s inaugural Limerick event will take place on Friday, October 14 at Library Bar with a cover charge of €7. All proceeds on the night will go toward Pieta House.
