Maisie Adam

Catch Maisie before she becomes a superstar – but be quick, because this girl doesn’t hang about. In 2017, a mere 12 months after deciding to give the comedy circuit a bash, Maisie won the prestigious So You Think You’re Funny? best newcomer award – only the fourth woman to do so in its 30 year history.
