Boston favorite, Amma Marfo, brings her comedy to Haverhill, MA 3/7/25.
About this Event

After years of writing about comedy, Amma decided to take to the stage – on the nudge of a dare set for her by her podcast co-hosts. In the years since, she’s developed an “anxious Black nerd” persona that creates a unique take on current events, life as a thirtysomething, and pop culture. Her strong writing and attentive timing have allowed her to work with comics like Eric Andre (Adult Swim, ABC), Jay Jurden (The Problem with Jon Stewart), Leslie Liao (Netflix), and Mia Jackson (Comedy Central). In addition to performing regularly in the New England area, she appears as a recurring panelist on The Great Pop Culture Debate podcast (#AmmaWasRight). She recently reached a major career milestone: headlining Boston’s storied Nick’s Comedy Stop in 2023 and 2024.

As a producer, she’s a co-founder of New Normal Boston, a comedy collective dedicated to uplifting traditionally underrepresented comedians through shows, mics, and workshops; and is the former producer of Pantry Raid Comedy (2021-2024), an online comedy show hosted on Comedy Hub that allows comedians to share their favorite jokes – and their strongest food-based opinions.

Festival Appearances:

  • Black Women in Comedy Festival – NYC (2019, 2021, 2022, 2023)
  • Far From Here Festival – Toronto (2022)
  • Far Out Fest – Northampton, MA (2023)
  • Laugh Riot Grrrrl Festival – Los Angeles, CA (2022)

  • Plano Comedy Festival – Plano, TX (2023, 2024)
  • Rogue Island Comedy Festival – Newport, RI (2022)

Her debut half hour, “Enjoy Your Nachos,” was released in February 2023; later that year, The Boston Globe named it one of the best specials of the year with Boston roots.
