The ‘most vetted comedian in Ireland’ was in Wexford ahead of hitting the National Opera House with his latest show ‘Algorithm’

Comedian Al Porter.
“There’s no describing the place I’m in in my career. It’s very strange. I could still bump into somebody on the street who says, ‘oh what are you doing now? Like, are you back gigging?’.”
Comedian Al Porter is very much “back gigging”. He’s on his second national tour since his comeback and is writing and directing plays in the Olympia Theatre. As he sits in the lobby of a Wexford hotel, he’s in good spirits and ready to perform a charity gig to send a local kids soccer team to a competition in Blackpool.
