Tama Alexander is one of the hottest young comedians on the scene, having performed to sold out crowds across the country - he definitely isn’t one to miss. Breatha tells the tales from Tama’s second year at University, a year of love, loss, and excessive alcohol consumption. Breatha isn’t just for the young crowds though, all ages (over 18) will find something to love.

Tama’s comedic style is unique and captivates audiences with his youth and energy on stage. Blending together his love for storytelling and music, his performances are never dull and always leave the crowd wanting more.
