Dan Tiernan: Quartz And All

THE SHOW Dan Tiernan is back at it again: and this time he's got magic rocks in his pocket. With a hat trick of sold-out Edinburgh Festival runs, Dan's a two-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee who has received countless five-star reviews. No wonder the Guardian has named him 'one of comedy's most distinctive new voices'. 'Loud, inventive, visceral... it's a blast' **** Times Dan returns on tour armed with an amethyst, a bucketful of sage and a rose quartz the size of his impossibly large head. As seen on Live at the Apollo, 8 Out of Ten Cats Does Countdown, The Last Leg, and QI.
