About Diya Shah
Diya Shah? Diya Shahn't is the Edinburgh Fringe debut one-woman show by Diya Shah, a former Pointless contestant and Cambridge Footlight, performed at Theatre 1. Aged just 22, she has faced enough humbling events to last a lifetime, which she processes through stand-up comedy. The show weighs up her highest highs, lowest lows and greatest humiliations, debating whether they warrant an early retirement from comedy. It asks once and for all: to Shah or to Shahn't. The show runs for 50 minutes, contains strong language, and is suitable for ages 12 and over. Tickets are £11.
Why see this show?
A debut show from someone who has already lived enough material for three hours of comedy. Sharp, self-aware and honest, with the energy of someone who has nothing to lose and everything to prove.
