Irish American comic Des Bishop will do a one-off show in Rory Dolans on Friday, January 11 at 9pm in support of the ILIR.

Tickets cost $20 and will be available at the door. All proceeds will go to the ILIR campaign.

The show is also being filmed for Des's new Irish TV series called "In the Name of the Fada" which will be shown on RTE One in Ireland from March 08.

The show, which has been filming since March 07, follows Des's progress over a year while he learns the Irish language.

Des volunteered to do this gig to help the ILIR maintain momentum in the New Year and we are delighted to welcome Des back to Yonkers.
