As well as regular circuit gigs at comedy clubs across the UK, Isma Almas has performed solo shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, at London’s Barbican Centre for Stonewall, at Bradford’s Literature Festival and on a raucous luxury gay cruise around the Med. As well as winning The First Laugh at Sheffield Comedy Festival, Isma was a semi-finalist in So You Think You’re Funny? and made it to the final of Funny Women. She spent six months co-presenting the mid-morning show on BBC Radio Leeds, where interviewing a number of famous names. A much-needed voice in comedy today, audiences love Isma’s friendly, Bradford-infused, preconception-shattering style.
