with Pariah Khan

Bishop Sutton Village Hall, Bishop Sutton

Stifled by life in middle-class India, Krishnan is a young man desperate to see more of the world.

On a journey of self-discovery he visits the exotic island of Great Britain to & ‘find himself’. What does Krishnan’s journey teach him about the world? What might he learn about himself? And what happens when he falls in love with a native?

‘A generous and hilarious writer and performer with a keen eye for detail and impeccable comic timing. He has a big future ahead of him’ – Nikesh Shukla, Editor of The Good Immigrant

Reviews

A shrewd and bitingly funny send-up of the ‘spiritual journey’ ★★★★ – PubTheatres Magazine

That Pariah Khan is a smart man. It’s a jaunty hour, full of well-timed gags yet beneath the joviality, there lies an acerbic touch. ★★★★ – Kris Hallett, Bristol Post reviewer
