So good I've been twice! Daizy Maan has flown in from Melbourne, Aus at short notice - - alongside trusty MC/hyper-upper Shyaire Ganglani -- to bring this show of incredible South Asian women to the Fringe for Brown Women Comedy's UK debut. Comedy is, undoubtedly, one of the most viscerally vulnerable art forms, and with this show you get to see a lineup of 5 unique women for the price of 1 ticket.
