Join award-winning comedian Dian Cathal for "Deadnamed," a heartfelt and hilarious funeral for his old self. Challenging mainstream narratives around the "loss" often associated with coming out as transgender, Dian offers a deeply personal, unfiltered perspective—blending sharp wit, Irish folklore, and raw storytelling into a one-of-a-kind performance.
With a coffin on stage and a top hat in hand, he unpacks the complexities of identity, love, and acceptance, all while keeping the audience laughing. It’s a journey through laughter and tears, where tough truths are met with warmth and wit. It’s a funeral like no other, and it’s time to hear the trans experience directly from a trans man.
“Deadnamed” has captivated audiences and earned rave reviews for balancing profound themes with humor and heart. As one reviewer put it: “An intensely raw performance... sharing his experience with humour, honesty, and love.”
The trans debate with an actual trans person, can you imagine?
