MC: FATHIYA SALEH
Fathiya Saleh (UK) is een up-an-comming comedyster uit de UK. In haar cheeky, charmante en herkenbare comedy exploreert ze thema's als identiteit, familie, de absurditeit van het dagelijkse leven en haar perspectief op de wereld als moslimvrouw die haar weg door de samenleving zoekt. Haar shows verkopen overal uit: in de UK, Zweden, Saudi-Arabië, de VS, Egypte... Dua Lipa's Service 95 noemt haar een van de "5 faces to know", omwille van haar verfrissende stem in de comedyscene.
Tatty MacLeod (UK) mist helaas het Comedy Gala wegens ziekte, maar Nigel Williams springt voor haar in. Deze oude rot in het vak heeft een passie voor het vak en stort zich vol overgave op elk optreden.
