Finnish comedians causing a stir on the UK comedy circuit are hardly ten-a-penny, so ISMO’s Town Hall gig offers a perfect opportunity to bag yourself a novel experience. Combining sharp observational humour with a unique perspective on everyday life, the 46-year-old funnyman - full name Ismo Mikael Leikola - shot to stardom in the United States a decade ago when he won comedy club Laugh Factory’s Funniest Person In The World competition. 


Life since then has been pretty good for the Jyväskylä-born laughter merchant, whose clever wordplay and humorous takes on English quirks have helped him chisel out a refreshingly unique style of comedy.
