The hilarious Fatiha El Ghorri brings her Work In Progress comedy show to Rich Mix!
Event starts at 7.30pm (Doors open from 7pm)
Fatiha is a British-Moroccan writer, actor, and regular on the UK comedy circuit. Her observational stand-up and wonderful witticism take you on a whirlwind journey that pulls apart Muslim stereotypes and challenges people’s views on Islam, Muslims, and Muslim women. She tackles some tough subjects like Islamophobia and dating by sharing her own experiences which are funny, thought-provoking and honest! When she is not doing stand up you may see Fatiha on your tv screens, where she has made TV appearances on shows including The Jonathan Ross Show and Russell Howard Comedy Hour.
The evening is presented by Arts Canteen in collaboration with Rich Mix.
Supported by Arts Council England.
