Sharp wit meets towering perspective as Tim delivers expertly crafted comedy about life's absurdities. Relax and laugh at the nonsense.

Tim McGarry is back on the road with his brand new solo stand up show The Height of Nonsense. Following the huge success of his Ridiculous tour, Tim has now reached a stage in life where he couldn't give a f…flying monkeys.

Concerned about the state of the world? Worried you don't have enough Tik Tok followers and that Netflix may finally run out of true crimes? Don't panic! Instead let a veteran 6 foot 4 comedian reassure you that there's nothing to worry about – it's all nonsense. So we may as well just relax and have a good laugh.

Tim is well known and loved as the host of BBCNI's The Blame Game, star of Give My Head Peace and co-presenter of The Long and the Short Of It.

"Packed full of beautifully crafted jokes and stories all delivered with mischief and skill. Tim is a great comic and an expert blackmailer" - Neil Delamere
