Following her highly acclaimed, sellout tour last year, Taskmaster Champion, Maisie Adam is back on the road in 2026 with new dates just added into 2027 for her show Whatsherface. The ‘tall, chaotic one with the weird hair’* returns to the stage with her trademark wit and firecracker gags, and probably a few angry outbursts along the way. *A genuine description given by her best friend’s Mum at a wedding this year.
Maisie has had an incredibly exciting, rapid rise through the comedy ranks becoming a household name in just a few years. Maisie has just been crowned the winner of C4’s acclaimed Taskmaster and can soon be seen the second series of Amazon’s hit show Last One Laughing. She has also starred on: C4’s The Last Leg and The Big Fat Quiz Of The Year, multiple times on BBC’s Have I Got News For You and Sky’s A League Of Their Own. She is also a regular participant of ITV’s Soccer Aid for UNICEF and her TV special Appraisal is available on Sky and NOW TV.
Maisie’s comedy career kicked off when she won the So You Think You’re Funny? Award (previously won by Peter Kay, Aisling Bea and Tom Allen). The following year she was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards. Her anecdotal material and witty charm quickly won her high praise and she quickly went on to appear on many TV shows including BBC’s Mock The Week, QI and C4’s 8 Out Of 10 Cats.
Maisie is co-host of the hugely popular Big Kick Energy football podcast, with Suzi Ruffell, which won Sports Podcast Of The Year at the Broadcast Sport Awards 2023. She solidified her role as "professional Lionesses fan" when she hosted the BBC's Fan Diary podcast, following the Lionesses' road to success for the 2nd time at last summer's Euros. Alongside Jill Scott, Maisie is currently hosting C4’s coverage of Women’s FA Cup football beginning with Jill And Maisie’s Road To Wembley and Maisie and Jill will be presenting the FA Cup Final at Wembley in May. Maisie also co-hosts the newly launched vodcast Remember Me?, with Scott Bryan.
As well as being a big Leeds United fan, Maisie is a keen footballer and plays regularly for her local Brighton team.
