Shazia has been a mainstay of the British comedy scenes for ages and the award winning stand-up comedian and writer shows no signs of slowing down with her new 'Coconut' show nominated for 'Best Stand Up Tour' in Channel 4's National Comedy Awards. Her distinctive act combines a deadpan delivery with observation on her world. Shazia is in certain respects a revolutionary figure being the UK's first female Muslim stand up and she has a unique perspective as a British Muslim with her material crossing both cultures. Her parents just want her to get married.

For my first time at a comedy show, I was ready for the funny and I was in for a treat. It was a cosy venue and we were seated at the front of the stage. The acts were funny and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Great - really attentive and friendly service. Thanks so much!
Nice venue. Great comedians and a good compere. Really helpful staff.
Great intimate venue with plenty of character. Choice of acts was fantastic and looking at their site this is usually the case. I'd definitely recommend this spot.
