SUMMARY:Khushi Comedy: Shazia Mirza
DESCRIPTION:The state of the world has changed since Shazia was teaching in an East End Comprehensive.\nKids have changed\, language has changed and no one’s got any shame anymore. Bring a bit of it back as Shazia's mum would say! Have some shame\, just a bit! \nA good romp full of laughs and hilarity\, about the state of the world and how different things are to when Shazia was teaching and how she was brought up in Birmingham in the 90’s. \nShazia Mirza is an award winning British stand up comedian and writer. In 2023 The Telegraph named her as one of the 50 defining comedians of the century. \nShazia’s TV appearances include: Eastenders (BBC) ‘QI’ (BBC)\, ‘Would I lie To You’ (BBC)\, ‘The Jonathan Ross Show’ (ITV)\, ‘Rhod Gilbert’s Growing Pains’ (Comedy Central)\, ‘Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls’ (C4)\,  Top Gear (BBC)\, ‘The One Show (BBC)\, ‘Loose Women’ (ITV)\, ‘The Late Late Show’ (RTE) ‘Have I got News for You’ (BBC) Celebrity SAS Who Dares Wins (Channel 4) and ‘The Wright Stuff’/’Jeremy Vine’ (C5) as well as the ever popular ‘F*** Off\, I’m a Hairy Woman’ (BBC).
