Ria Lina - Riabellion


Following her killer debut tour Riawakening (Top Ten Best Stand-up Shows of 2024 - Telegraph) the wickedly funny Ria Lina realised she wasn’t just awake she was ready to rebel. Expect a relentless stream of hilarity as Ria explores the state of the world the eternal battle of the sexes and the delight of throwing life up in the air after years of following the rules. 


Much loved in the industry this multi-award winner commands the stage with a whirlwind of energy

and leaves audiences breathless with laughter. Her extensive list of credits includes Live At The Apollo Have I Got News For You? Mock the Week cohosting Pointless Lovestruck High Richard Osman’s House of Games The Last Leg and Celebrity Mastermind.


“Fearless provocative and very funny” (The Scotsman) Ria Lina is a highly accomplished comedian writer and actor. After a critically acclaimed stand-out debut on Mock The Week (BBC) Ria has quickly become a household name. A hugely admired act on the UK comedy circuit this

multi-award-winning artist commands respect from the moment she walks onstage and

delivers with natural ease energy and fierceness. Ria is the most prominent Filipina

comedian in British stand-up. She has a BSc in Experimental Pathology an MSc in Forensic

Science and a PhD in Virology under her belt so it’s not only Ria’s comedy that’s highly

Intelligent.
