Shappi Khorsandi is an Iranian female comic living in London, and she's absolutely hilarious. Every single video of her performing stand-up on YouTube is phenomenal and always has me in stitches. I have a great deal of respect for her for being one of the only popular comedians in Britain that can create original and intellegent material that really does dispel gender and racial barriers. Along with her wickedly deadpan style, her stand-up is filled with painfully accurate observations about society. I'd really recommend checking her out.
I've also just purchased her book A Beginner's Guide to Acting English off Amazon. Watch this space for a review.
