Imran Yusuf will present a work-in-progress show titled Essentially Existential on 18 November 2026 at Hot Toddys in Camden, London. The performance will explore subversive satire and philosophical themes, aiming to provoke thought and laughter. The show is suitable for an audience that appreciates intellectual humour.
Genius needs space to manifest great art, and this is what this show is; a work in progress of Imran’s trademark subversive satire and philosophical ponderings that will elicit awe and mirth as he shapes a new show that will nourish your soul, increase your IQ and make you smile. You might also laugh too.
We’re all born into pre-existing narratives and the conflicts they came with, endowed with
reason to solve the unreasonable in the seemingly unwinnable game of life where we might make some friends, it’d be a waste if we couldn’t laugh along the way.
This show is suitable for people who read books, and life between the lines ;-)
MARK THOMAS: “ Imran is one of the comedy world’s hidden gems , funny, gently subversive
and full of heart”
THE TELEGRAPH: “Sharp, passionate and uplifting”
TIME OUT: “Intelligent, thought-provoking and laugh out loud funny”
Expect a relaxed, intimate night of live comedy, fresh ideas and the chance to see brand-new material taking shape before it heads out on tour.
Comedian friends to be announced.
As this is a work-in-progress performance, material is subject to change.
