•  Emma Doran

What an amazing year it’s been for new comedy superstar Emma Doran. She’s just completed her first Irish tour, a total sell out nationwide including 3 nights in Vicar St and her first solo London shows as well as having a chart topping podcast “And Another Thing”

Her stand up and sketches have racked up hundreds of thousands of hits on some of the country's most popular sites including independent.ie, her.ie, and Irish Mirror. Emma has appeared on everything from the Today Show with Daithi and Maura to American TV Show Right This Minute

Emma has just finished filming on Prime Video’s first Irish Comedy Production ‘Laugh Out Loud Ireland’ alongside Graham Norton which airs next year.

Emma can also be heard on FM104 breakfast show The Strawberry Alarm Clock both as co host and in their hilarious sketches.

Dry and sarcastic she firmly has her finger on the pulse of society and is wickedly funny.
