Dylan Moran: What It Is Live
Dylan Moran, star and creator of ABC TV’s Black Books is back launching the DVD of his hugely popular tour filmed live at The State Theatre in Sydney. Dylan Moran What It Is Live will be available from November 11, 2009.
Australian fans should get a real buzz with the feature showcasing Sydney’s State Theatre, filmed on Dylan’s highly successful tour of Australia in early 2009. Dylan’s legendary stand-up rants have sold out across the world, cementing this unkempt wordsmith’s reputation as one of the foremost comics of his generation. His big screen appearances have included Run Fat Boy Run and Shaun Of The Dead.
Likened to Dave Allen and labeled ‘The Oscar Wilde of comedy’ Dylan is unpredictable, bizarre, elegiac, often cruel but above all painfully funny. He sees through the joys and disappointments of human existence with the sensibility and intense perception of a man teetering on the edge. He chews life up and coughs it out…
If one hit of Moran’s bitterness isn’t enough, Dylan Moran: The Whole Collected Thing is also available to own on DVD from November 11. Containing three of Moran’s sell-out tours; Monster (2004), Like, Totally… (2006) and What It Is (2008/9) The Whole Collected Thing is a must-have for all lovers of stand up.
