Shazia Mirza
Shazia Mirza is back with a new stand-up tour Prude, a brand-new show about Expectations, Identity and other DIRTY words.
If you look a certain way, talk a certain way, and joke about certain things, you get used to people saying what they think of you. Bring it on.
But recently Shazia was stunned when a man called her "a prude", like that’s a bad thing!
How is it that in 2027 being a prude has become a disgraceful slur? Something to be ashamed of, that we should want to deny?
Shouldn't it be the other way round? Being a prude should be celebrated! Glorified! Rewarded!
As a Muslim girl in Birmingham, a teacher in East End schools, and a woman in showbiz, Shazia has met them all, from prudes to pros to perverts, and trust me, I know what’s best.
She's coming out - prude and proud!
Born in Birmingham, the eldest daughter of Muslim Pakistani parents who moved to England in the 1960s, Shazia read Biochemistry at the University of Manchester and spent time as a science teacher - she taught Dizzee Rascal - before becoming a stand-up comedian.
