Maureen Younger

In 2023 Maureen reached the finals of British Comedian of the Year and was placed third. In 2024 she was one of the acts performing at the Best of British Showcase at the Adelaide Comedy Festival.

Maureen works as a stand up comedian and compere all around the UK and abroad and is a regular face at all the major UK Comedy Clubs. As an experienced compere, Maureen is known for her quick wit and sharp audience interaction. In the UK she is one of the few (if only) comedians who performs regularly at mainstream, urban, gay and Asian comedy nights. Maureen has also gigged in German and French!

Her gigs have ranged from being the support act for comedians such as Frankie Boyle and Jen Brister and for the entire West End run of The Naked Magicians at the Trafalgar Studios as well as one of the warm up acts for Puppetry of the Penis to performing at the Barbican alongside Arthur Smith; supporting Shazia Mirza on tour; to being one of the acts at the Jamaica vs The World gigs at the Shepherds Bush Empire. (Maureen was representing the latter category!)
