Born in Jamaican in the deep countryside of St Elizabeth, Annameka fell in love with story telling after arriving in the UK at age seven and was enrolled in a local drama academy to knock the island twang out of her.

​​​

Graduated from City Academy, with her first  five minute set at London's Soho Comedy Club in the Empire Casino in 2014, then updated my swagger with Soho Theatre Comedy Lab in 2022.

In 2025 I debuted "Unbelievable Jamaican". My one hour show about being a  Jamaican immigrant living in London who doesn’t fit the mould—and, that’s where the fun begins! Caught between two worlds, she’s too “British” for the Jamaicans and too “Jamaican” for the Brits. The show will touch upon the weirdness of being an immigrant in London, her childhood through to womanhood. The "Unbelievable Jamaican" takes you on a wild ride through her hilarious (and often awkward) adventures while trying to carve out her identity in a place where some believe she doesn’t fit the mould of a “true Jamaican”.

 

Her show at The Fitzgerald Speakeasy Cocktail bar, in the Women in Comedy Festival was well received, the show was filled with laughs, truths, and the unforgettable story of finding yourself when the world can’t quite figure you out. The show is being developed at  local comedy clubs in London.
