Don't miss the chance to see the hilarious and iconic drag comedian Lady Bushra as this 'teenage' starlet takes you on quite the unique journey! Hailed from the 'exotic land of Bradford' Bushra is your South Asian 'Karen' so get ready to hear her unique take on how everything is anybody's fault but hers.
Shortlisted for the 2021 BBC New Comedy Awards, Lady Bushra is the brainchild of British Asian comedian Amir, originally from Bradford, West Yorkshire.
His alter ego Lady Bushra is known for her stand-up comedy, ingenious lipsync performances and one-liners, often seen performing her soldout ‘Drag Comedy Cabaret’ across the nation. The character of Lady Bushra is that of a Bradford bad girl who turned out to be a breakout sensation during lockdown and is also known for her viral digital content. This clever mix of South Asian sensibilities blended with British humour has made Lady Bushra an instant hit, allowing Amir to take his act all over the UK as well as internationally.
This full-fledged stand-up comedy show invites the audience into the mind of Lady Bushra and appreciate her interesting take on the world that she finds herself in.
