About the show
Urooj Ashfaq: How to Be a Baddie is a solo stand-up show presented by Soho Theatre at Monkey Barrel 3. Urooj Ashfaq, one of India's most exciting comics, returns to the Fringe with a new persona — no longer the good girl or relatable comedian, but a self-described bad girl and edgelord who mentions sexy things and topics. The show runs 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 14 and over.
Why see this show?
Urooj Ashfaq sheds the relatable persona and goes somewhere sharper and more provocative. If you've seen her before, this is a deliberate departure worth watching; if you haven't, it's a strong introduction.
