Luisa Omielan has had an incredible few years. Her word-of-mouth Edinburgh Fringe hit, ‘What Would Beyoncé Do?’, brought the feelgood atmosphere of a house party to comedy club and became a sell-out success across the globe. Now she’s back on the road with her hugely successful follow-up, ‘Am I Right Ladies?’ (You might’ve seen this clip from the show making the rounds on social media recently.)
Ahead of her next London show, we asked the fast-rising comic to talk us through her favourite stand-ups. It wasn’t the easiest of tasks for her. ‘Even though I am a comedian, I don’t like watching comedy,’ she says. Uh-oh! ‘But here are ten comics who I do love to watch and feel are unsung heroes of the stand-up world.’
