Shazia Mirza
Shazia Mirza in 'The Last Temptation of Mirza'
What is your show all about?
My show is called Wish You Were Here 'The Last Temptation of Mirza' and is about all the things I am tempted to do while I am travelling. What does someone who has never smoked, never drunk alcohol, never taken drugs, never gambled do?
Where and when can we see it?
The Pleasance Dome 5, 22.55-23.55, 4th-30th August.
Do you love Edinburgh or is it a chore?
I love it, even when it doesn't love me.
What will you be doing with the other 23 hrs of the day?
Sleeping and working.
What's the best thing you've ever seen on the fringe?
There are so many great shows, but I once saw Peter kay being really, really, really funny.
What's the worst thing you've seen?
Johnny Vegas out of control, is that possible?
What's the most curious thing that's happened to you in Edinburgh?
Someone dressed as a gorilla came and sat in my show, and didn't move all the way through. I thought he was dead.
If you could persuade one VIP to come to your show who would it be? Why?
George Clooney, because I fancy him.
If the Edinburgh fairy could grant your wish, what would your wish for?
THAT EVERYONE LOVES ME. I MEAN EVERYONE.
What advice do you have for first time Edinburgh punters?
Watch a few good shows rather than 100'S of shows and not really remembering them because you are so tired or drunk.
