COMEDY
Maybe you came here to hear my story about my rise to still being called a rising star. It was in Vancouver Canada where I started stand up and I cannot recommend pursuing your dream at least 4,461 miles away from your family and friends.
Or you might want to know what makes someone seek validation from strangers. Still working that out in therapy but here’s a piece I wrote about how Comedy has helped my mental health

A Bio for the Bookers
‘Irish comedian Anna Clifford is a natural entertainer with a strong stage presence and jokes to match. She has had audiences across the globe laughing with her unbelievable stories and clever observations on millennial life. Anna kicked off her comedy career while living in Vancouver, Canada since then she has been standing out against the best in the Irish and UK comedy circuit.”
Credits include RTE, BBC, MTV, LadBIble, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Electric Picnic and more. Her debut comedy special ‘I SEE DEADLY PEOPLE’ is available to watch on YouTube.
“Anna Clifford was the stand out, the Dubliner spoke about being a millennial and how Irish girls are described as the life of the party, but never complimented on their looks: “They’re great craic – but no one ever says they have a great crack.”
