Bio
Ania is a comedian based in London. She’s a triple threat (bisexual, Gen Z, bad at cooking). Her 2023 stand up show, I Can’t Believe You’ve Done This, was nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show, and received multiple 4 and 5 star reviews, with the Scotsman calling it a ‘beautifully structured show’.

As a writer Ania regularly works with comedian, journalist and viral sensation Amelia Dimoldenberg on Chicken Shop Date and Amelia’s Cooking Show, featuring guests such as Ed Sheeran, Charli XCX and Louis Theroux.
