In her new solo comedy storytelling hour, internationally touring, critically acclaimed, Berlin-based, independent standup comedian from India Anshita Koul, answers the most frequently asked and absolutely unavoidable question (because she tried avoiding it for five years), not with a quick retort, but by telling a short story, long— hoping the audiences are sighing, laughing and crying, in no particular order.

Audiences are calling the show “very personal, very alive, very relatable, and of course, very funny,” “a moment of enlightenment,” and “some of the best things humanity has to offer!”

“The pacing is dynamic, the transitions are sharp, and each story naturally leads into the next. There is no moment of hesitation, no dragging; it is full speed ahead, and you have to keep up.” - Sour Cream and Dill, Tallinn Fringe
