Tez Ilyas - From Science Degree to Stand up Comedy
In this episode of The Cambridge Chronicles Podcast, Sam Melvin sits down with comedian Tez Ilyas for a funny, honest and uplifting conversation about comedy, ambition, failure and finding your own voice. Tez talks about how he found his way into comedy, the influence of his friends and family, the realities of performing stand-up, and the importance of learning from the moments when things don't quite go to plan.
They also get into the changing world of comedy and social media, Tez's journey from the open-mic circuit to creating comedy online, and why he sees adapting and putting in the hard work as such an important part of the process. Expect plenty of laughs, some brutally honest stories from the stage, and an insight into what it really takes to build a career in comedy.
