Lost In Confusion
Following his sell-out show in 2005, Britain’s foremost Asian stand-up comedian, Paul Chowdhry, returns with a new show set to make a target of everything; from his encounter with Panorama, Ken Livingstone and so called nice people, to serial killers, the current war on terror and what’s acceptable in the public arena in trying to make strangers laugh. In an attempt to understand social confusions, ‘Supernanny’, his discomfort with male nudity, Tesco’s, al-Qaeda, political correctness and even OAP strippers fall into Paul’s crosshairs in this one-hour primetime show. Through his eclectic set of highly-charged, dry, observational humour, Chowdhry’s audiences will embark upon his courageous search for the absurd in today’s hot-topics - the thoughts most have, but only Paul has the verve and style to verbalise - and his daily crashes from one social insanity to another. Claiming to be both confused and misunderstood in his irritations of modern life, Paul has perfected new material for his return. Commenting on the show, Paul says "this is, without doubt, my hardest-hitting, and most honest, show to date". Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Baby Belly, Smirnoff Underbelly. Box Office: 0870 745 3083
