Line Up :

Imran Yusuf  : Soft Jihad ( Work in Progress / Leicester Comedy Festival warmup )

Masterfully weaving socio-political satire with heartfelt introspection in his trademark charming and endearing style, Imran has been a pioneering voice in modern British comedy and across the world, racking up over 7 million hits on his YouTube channel.

This brand new show is an honest and cheeky celebration of modern Britain. Karma has caught up with the colonial past of our nation, and those who were once subjugated by the British Empire have made it their home. Be it the Mayor, the Prime Minister, or a Stand Up Comedian; Britain has bloomed into a bountiful basket of rich talent because many of us got on with integrating, working hard and making a massive contribution through patient and peaceful endeavour… Welcome to my ‘soft jihad’.

Fun night in a local, quirky venue! Nice range of comics. The highlights for me were Malinda Makumba and Micah Hall. I would have liked to have heard some comedy or cabaret material from the MC rather than just chatting to the audience.
