COMEDIAN Serena Terry has thanked the people of Letterkenny for coming to her show in An Grianán Theatre, despite Storm Dave’s arrival.
The Derry comedian, and creator of the online sensation ‘Mammy Banter’, Serena brought her biggest stand-up comedy tour to date, ‘Therapy’ to the local theatre earlier this month.
After selling out her previous two UK and Ireland comedy tours and becoming the first ever female to sell out The SSE Arena in Belfast in 2024, Serena should have been feeling on top of the world. But instead, she found herself facing up to depression.
After a four-month hiatus, an exhaustive list of therapies and an explorative mission towards self care, she’s back to her best.

Self described as ‘still medicated, still peri-menopausal and a little bit mentally unstable, but functioning’, Serena has been telling audiences about her journey to recovery and the life altering events that came in between.
Taking to her own social media following her show, a delighted Serena said: “Letterkenny, a mediocre storm named Dave didn’t stop yees (sic) Thank you.”
And her honest and fresh outlook on life certainly struck a chord with her audience in Letterkenny, who also took to social media afterwards to praise her for “an absolutely brilliant show”.
“What a show! You smashed it. Sides were sore laughing. Take a bow,” wrote one person, while another wrote: “What a great night, haven’t laughed so much in ages. Laughter is definitely good for the soul.
“Thank you Serena Terry for all the laughs.”
Others commented: “What a great night. I laughed from start to finish. It really was therapy.”
“You were superb. Congratulations on a fabulous performance.”
