Actor and comedian Rosie O'Donnell has announced her new stand-up show, Common Knowledge, to premiere in Dublin on June 27.
It will be her first stand-up show in almost a decade and will focus on her newly adopted hometown, Dublin.
The show is a reflection on O'Donnell's move over the pond, the cultural differences that came with it, her family life and 'the humbling and hilarious realisation that maybe you don't have it all figured out.'
Common Knowledge is described as being a 'fresh take from a comedy icon, chock full of sharp insight, big laughs and brilliantly personal storytelling.'
In March of this year, O'Donnell was a guest on the Late Late Show, where she talked about her move to Ireland and her public feud with Donald Trump, which has been ongoing since 2006.
The now 63-year-old actor has won multiple Emmys for her talk show 'The Rosie O'Donnell Show' and has starred in film classics like Sleepless in Seattle and A League of Their Own.

Watch: Hugh Bonneville appears to kiss estate goodbye in Downton Abbey finale trailer
Hugh Bonneville's Robert, the Earl of Grantham, has appeared to kiss his country estate goodbye in the trailer for Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale. The movie is promoted as bidding 'farewell' to the Yorkshire-set series about the life of the landed gentry and their servants that began with a TV show before a series of films. It sees the return of Bonneville; Michelle Dockery as Lady Mary; Elizabeth McGovern as Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham; Laura Carmichael as Lady Edith; Jim Carter as the butler Charles 'Charlie' Carson; and Joanne Froggatt as Anna Bates. The teaser begins with the family attending an opulent day at the races, and Mr Carson as an announcer saying: 'Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to 1930.' The following clips show London theatrical productions, Dominic West as Guy Dexter and Lady Edith telling Lady Mary that she will be a 'sensation'. The family then return to Downton Abbey, where a painting of Maggie Smith's Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, who died in the 2022 film Downton Abbey: A New Era, is shown along with dances and the staff. Last year, Oscar-winning actress Smith died in September at the age of 89, with Bonneville remembering her at the time as a 'true legend of her generation'. Joanne Froggatt (left), Michelle Dockery (centre) and Dame Maggie Smith starred in Downton Abbey together (Ian West/PA) The trailer shows the words: 'It's almost time to bid farewell' before ending with the family and staff all waiting outside the grand estate, while the Earl presses his finger to his lips and then places them on the wall. Starting as a series in 2010, the programme won a number of awards, including 15 Emmys, with three of them going to Smith for outstanding supporting actress in a drama series. The series, the final of which aired on TV on Christmas Day in 2015, has also won a special TV Bafta award and earned Smith a nod. Released in 2019, the first film in the trilogy depicted a royal visit to the Crawley family and Downton staff, while the second film, Downton Abbey: A New Era, saw them travel to France after Violet inherited a villa. Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale will release in cinemas on September 12.
