‘An Audience with Imran Yusuf‘ at Soho Theatre SELLS OUT in first week of Imran’s 42 date tour setting the precedent for the spring tour to be a total sell out.
Imran Yusuf – Time Out - Pick of the Week: “He’s been on the circuit for a number of years, but this solo show from Imran Yusuf has rocketed him into the public eye. It’s an intelligent, thought-provoking and laugh out loud hour – a glorious debut.”

In 2010 the comedy industry was taken by storm, witnessing Imran Yusuf launch into the limelight as one of the biggest stars to emerge from the Edinburgh Comedy Festival. Dominic Cavendish at The Telegraph summarises “This year has been marked by an invigorating sense of a younger crowd breaking through”. Looking further and selecting Imarn as an act who made a big impact this year: “This charismatic Kenyan-born Londoner is so intent on giving audiences a good time, he smuggles through shrewd observations about multiculturalism and modern life without you even noticing.” A fitting summary.
