Native New Yorker Aidan Bishop began his comedy career in his hometown however since relocating to Dublin he has become one of the top comics working today. As organizer and resident MC of the now famous International Comedy Club, he has honed his craft in the same room as some of Ireland’s most famous comedians.
However his ambitions have not been confined to the small borders of the International. In the past two years Aidan has appeared in all major Irish festivals, including the Kilkenny Cat Laughs and the Carlsberg Comedy Carnival. In 2008 Aidan made his Edinburgh Fringe Festival Debut with his solo show, ‘Bachelor Pad’ to critical acclaim. His television debut came with RTE 2’s Savage Eye as part of ‘Project Ha Ha’. He returns to Edinburgh this year with ‘Mispelled’, a show that was born out of his experiences of dyslexia.
