Fresh from the record-breaking success of The Prosecco Express, Joanne McNally unveils Pinotphile, a much-anticipated new stand-up show filled with candid tales and sharp humor. Recognized by Variety as a talent to watch, she dives into messy modern relationships, payback, tricky friendships, and the sting of rejection, while cheerfully skewering her own misadventures. Her irreverent, high-energy storytelling has drawn praise from the London Evening Standard and the Irish Examiner, and her previous tour earned Ticketmaster IE’s Comedy Event of the Year. Pinotphile continues her fearless look at love, chaos, and everything in between.
