No Blacks, No Dogs, No Irish

"No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs" was once a common sign that appeared on boarding houses across Britain. Now, with a slight twist, it serves as the title of a hilarious and insightful new show by Irish-Nigerian comedian Emman Idama.

Described by Chortle as "a warm, charming and thoroughly engaging performer”, Idama will guide the audience through his journey of moving from Nigeria to Ireland at the age of six, being the only black child in a small Irish town, his Christian mother’s and his Muslim father's attempts to win his soul for their respective faiths, and finding out he has dyslexia at the age of 27.

Two-time winner of the Hotpress Irish Comedian of the Year award, Emman is a regular of stage and screen – having toured Ireland extensively and appeared on RTÉ’s Republic of Telly, Des Bishop’s This is Ireland, and most recently on Comedy Central UK. Emman is also the regular host of In Stitches Comedy Club in Dublin Ireland.
