Sunday 7 September at 19:00 - 20:00Doors: 18:00 at Aleponija, Riga.
Comedian Anshita Koul gets a lot of annoying messages on Instagram on a daily basis like"Hello Ma'am, Big Fan! What do you do ?" "Ma'am, what is your height?" "How are you, Ma'am?"
And she has wilfully turned these unpleasant pleasantries into comedy routines as one does. But in her new hour long comedy storytelling special, Anshita will finally answer the most frequently asked question she gets on all social media platforms "Where Is Your Husband?” by telling a short story long. Some people believe that she had a husband but lost him, some think he cheated on her and some think she never had one. Only Anshita knows the truth. And her therapist thinks it's time. Since Anshita is childfree by choice, she would like to pass on this trauma to her audiences with love.
Anshita will be joined by some local guest opening acts in every city of the tour (more information on Instagram)
