DISCOMBOBULATE @ GLASGOW INTERNATIONAL COMEDY FESTIVAL 2010 PRESS RELEASE


Prestigious Lit Wit venue DiScoMbObUlaTe is reeling from the apparent theft of private correspondence ahead of its comedy festival opening. To prevent the perpetrators benefiting from the fruits of their crime, spokesman Ian Macpherson has taken the unprecedented step of releasing said correspondence into the public domain. Here are two samples.

Your Esteemed Holiness The Present Archbishop Of Dublin,
My father was a great fan of standup comedy, so every Sunday, without fail, he went to mass. You were his parish priest at the time. Fancy a spot at
DiScoMbObUlaTe?

Dear Flann O’Brien,
Thank you for your enquiry. I note from your Wikipedia entry, however, that you died in 1966. For this reason we won’t be asking you to read at
DiScoMbObUlaTe. But this is not to denigrate your incalculable contribution to world literature. Let’s just call it bad timing.

DisComBoBuLatE – where literature and comedy collide
Tues. March 23. 2010: 8-10 pm. 
The Arches, 253 Argyll Street, Glasgow
