Ali Sultan
Ali Sultan saw his first stand-up comedian after he moved to America from Yemen at the age of 15. He grew the desire to go on stage, but he needed to learn English. Ali’s comedy act is both clever and very funny. He is a master of observational humor and shares his personal life stories that are hilarious and memorable. Ali is a crowd-pleasing comic who is great at engaging and connecting with the audience. He became the first Yemeni American to make a television network debut on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”.
He has been on Comedy Central’s “Hart of the City” with Kevin Hart. Sultan filmed his comedy special in Dubai for Comedy Central Arabia. He was named both Best Local Comic and Artist of the Year by City Pages. Ali represented Minnesota and won the Best in the Midwest competition at Gilda’s LaughFest.
