Shappi Khorsandi

Feisty, flirty and effortlessly funny Shappi Khorsandi handles every subject with a razor sharp wit, softened only by her deliciously dizzy delivery and endless charm.  Shappi is a sought after cultural commentator appearing on ITV’s Sunday Edition, Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour and Radio 5 Live and also in The Guardian, The Independent, Metro and on BBC News website. In Los Angeles, she performed in a seven week sell-out run with her brother in a show called How to be Iranian as well as starring in her own one hour show.

“Britain’s best young female comic by any yardstick” The Guardian
