DONKEY! Join Irish comedy mad man John Spillane for a series of pop up shows in the Laughing Horse's Horse Box.

Through bizarre sketches and wild improvisation John invites his audience into a chaotic world where anything can happen at any time... John is a graduate from IO Chicago, the birthplace of improv comedy, and the lessons he learnt there have heavily informed his personal brand of comedy.


John has multiple TV credits including Comedy Central, RTE, WWE, Virgin Media, Now TV and he headlined the season 1 finale of Craic Den TV.

John was nominated for both BEST PERFORMER and SPIRIT OF THE WIT at the 2024 Dublin Fringe. John is also a filmmaker and was one of the 2021 SXSW Film delegates.
