Nik Narain's Rusk is a new one-hour sharp-witted, clean, queer, science-infused stand-up comedy show that discusses queer and trans South Asian experience through a series of personal stories, science facts, and dad jokes. Based on the popular brittle tea biscuit designed to be dipped in tea, Rusk is a story about finding transformation, authenticity, and joy through humour, even if it's uncomfortable or cumbersome.
