And now they are redefining the UK comedy scene..
You know the comedy show, Live at the Apollo? Well, we've been looking through their lineups, and it turns out that between 2015 and 2019, out of 90 potential slots onstage, there were only four performances from two Black female comics. What's going on?
This week De-Graft is heading to The Top Secret Comedy Club in London to chat to three comedians, Sikisa, ElaineBabey and Hemah K. They talk Live at the Apollo, comedy culture in the UK, and how they're jumping on their socials to redefine the comedy scene.
Host: De-Graft Mensah
Producers: Jack Suddaby and Dahaba Ali Hussen
