Imran Yusuf : Soft Jihad ( Work in Progress )
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’.

Reviews for previous Sion James events
Gotta work out a way of being able to hear every word the comedians say. Even having the mic volume of guests at 50% meant that some of the punchlines could not be heard at all. It is the only bad thing about this, everything else is absolutely superb. Personally I would rather everyone was on mute for the comedians performance and the ‘laughter’ was given in the form of the emoji things with the volume turned up right at the end for the rapturous applause. I know this experience may not be the same for the comedian but would be 100% better for the audience. Anytime a comedian wanted to interact with an audience member the admin would simply unmute them. FYI - don’t think this is required for the MC as it’s more of a discussion / free for all then. Also think, if this was implemented you could charge £10+ at least

Brilliant! All of the comedians were fantastic- and we were so chuffed that Russell Kane was the secret special guest. Seen Marcel lots of times before at various venues in Manchester, so it was lovely to see him again (even though it was online) and we really felt part of the show too which was amazing - It was definitely a great alternative to being there in the flesh. Thank you sooo much for organising this event. We loved it👍🏻🥰 We will def watch the next gig if we can. See you then. Jeni and Jonny. xx
