Ira Sylvester, the globe-trotting humour virtuoso hailing from the heart of London, brings his internationally developed wit to stages worldwide. His tongue-in-cheek style is both progressively-minded, yet darkly-humoured. An act that pushes the boundaries through a universal blend of storytelling and witty philosophising, leaving both the audience and himself with the question of whether someone should call a therapist.
Dark, Thought-provoking, and more than a little silly.
"I am very conscientious when it comes to who is the "butt" of my jokes, however I do like to push the boundary and find comfort in a space that tests what we're okay talking about."

I also have an hour-long lecture on the 'Origins of Racism' if you want something more serious... In the past I was the national organiser of an Anti-Racist Campaign based in the UK. That won't be funny but I can lighten the mood by taking my shirt off.
