COMEDY
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 relatable act outs and witty 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.
While living in London she was a Funny Women regional finalist 2017, Laughing Horse Semifinalist 2018 and Leicester square new act quarter-finalist 2017 and 2018. Anna is now based in Dublin but regularly gigs in the UK and Ireland.
Anna made her TV stand up debut as part of "Laughter in the Eyre" RTE early in 2020.
“Anna Clifford was the stand out, the dirty 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.”
Anna has been described as a ‘Dirty Dubliner’ but would like it noted that she carries handsanitizer at all times and sings’ Happy Birthday’ while washing her hands.
It’s odd to write in the third person but even more strange as an Irish person to mention any achievements as “I” cause sure, ‘I was only messing the whole time!’ I’m going back to pretending someone else created this site for me.
Anna is currently writing a solo stand up show, creating humorous online content, working on a new podcast and swimming in the Irish Sea.
