About this show
After a sold out world tour, comedian and author David Nihill is back with his brand new show, Taking Tangents. Leaving Dublin, Ireland where he was born and raised until the age of 22, David got drunk on travel and never quite hit sobriety of it. He has lived and worked in 12 countries and visited over 80. His shows draw on his wide travels, cultural observations, attempts at language study, (occasional) international drinking session(s) and being a mildly confused immigrant. David is the winner of the prestigious San Francisco Comedy Competition, and runner-up in the Moth's largest US Grandslam storytelling competition. A bestselling writer, David recorded his debut special Documented for Dry Bar Comedy in 2019, his follow up Cultural Appreciation in 2022, and his award winning show Shelf Help in 2025. He wad featured on TED.com, Sirius XM, Just For Laughs, Netflix is a Joke Festival, RTE's Late Late Show, The Irish Independent, Inc, NPR, and the Huffington Post and more.

Fantastic show, Dave's ability to combine humor with great storytelling/interesting factual trivia truly sets him apart from other comedians. We were both fortunate enough to meet him after the show, very approachable and nice guy to add.
I will definitely buy tickets to see him again soon.
