Hardy Bucks legend Owen Colgan, better known as Buzz McDonnell, headlines CoCo Comedy Club. Joined by special guests.

Best known as Buzz McDonnell from Hardy Bucks, Owen was at the heart of the cult Irish comedy from its original homemade YouTube videos through its RTÉ Storyland win, four television series and the Hardy Bucks feature film produced by Universal.

Since then, the Mayo comedian has built his own following as a live performer, selling out shows around Ireland including Cyprus Avenue, The Sugar Club and the Vodafone Comedy Carnival in Galway. He also fronted his own RTÉ Player series, Owen Colgan Around the Fire, tackling everything from sex and relationships to climate change in his own very particular way.

His live comedy is less traditional stand-up and more Owen being Owen: stories, tangents and whatever happens to be going through his head. As he has described it himself, the person on stage is essentially an exaggerated version of who he really is.
