Akmal is one of Australia’s most respected and accomplished comedians, known for his sharp wit, fearless humour and unmistakable ability to turn any topic into hysterical, good-natured comedy. With a career spanning movies, sketch comedy, stand-up, radio, television and publishing, Akmal has long been regarded as one of the country’s most versatile and successful performers.
As Australia’s only Arab-Australian comedian, Akmal brings a unique voice to the stage, using his heritage to explore modern life, culture, religion and identity with warmth, honesty and a brilliantly non-offensive edge. His natural charisma and lightning-fast improvisation allow him to command a room instantly — the type of comedian who has audiences laughing the moment he walks on stage.
A familiar face from Thank God You’re Here, The Project, Have You Been Paying Attention?, national radio, multiple tours and TV specials, Akmal remains one of Australia’s most in-demand comedians for corporate entertainment, festivals and premium live events.
