About this show
A new material stand up comedy show by Samira, known for her deadpan delivery, her devastating punchlines and the cheeky glint in her eye just before she pulls the trigger. As a daughter of refugees, with a dark sense of humour, and an often surreal and silly way of seeing the world, join Samira, winner of the prestigious So You Think You're Funny? award, as she experiments and explores in this work in progress.
