Abigoliah Schamaun

London-based New York comedian, actor and writer, Abigoliah Schamaun is frank, funny, and unapologetic.

Her unbridled charisma and comedic skill have taken her all over the world cementing her place as one of the top female headliners on the UK comedy scene.

Having cut her teeth gigging in America she moved to the UK where she immediately placed as a finalist in the Funny Women Awards and has since focussed on growing her large fan following.

On TikTok her stand up and comedy cooking clips have amassed over 10 million views and she has hundreds of thousands of followers. 

Abigoliah always presents her hilarious comedy with an open heart; bringing her audience into her world with warmth and excitement. In 2016 she was nominated for the Malcom Hardee Award for buying an incredible amount of advertising and then plastering them with fake reviews poking fun at the usefulness of the critics words.

Abigoliah has been featured on Channel 5's Outrageously Funny Comedy, BBC Radio 4 Extra, and The Guilty Feminist Podcast with Deborah Francis-White. She also appeared in Comedy Central’s I Live with Models and has supported Jim Norton, Kyle Kinane, and Gad Emelah on tour.

A proud queer woman, Abigoliah lives with ADHD and is very open in talking about her neurodiversity which she does with co-host Joe Wells on their Neurodivergent Moments Podcast. In its first season the podcast featured on BBC Radio 4 Extra and hosted a live recording at Latitude Festival to a packed out tent.
