Ismo will challenge your perception of words - and the world. His analytical eye finds things previously overlooked and makes them totally obvious. Neither words nor the world will remain the same. In 2002, Ismo began his career in his native Finland. He has since moved to America, toured the world and, yes, switched to speaking English! He recently made his American late-night television debut on Conan. His performance became a big-ass viral hit with over 62 million views to date! Get your ass (and the rest of you) out to see this show.

Ismo: Edinburgh Fringe 2018 interview

Finnish comedian Ismo is reaching international audiences due in part to a YouTube clip of his appearance on a late night U.S. chat show discussing the definition of 'ass'. The meaning of words forms a crucial part of this year's show.
