Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Newcomer Urooj Ashfaq is back, but this time she’s different.

One of India’s most exciting comics, Urooj Ashfaq heads out on her second UK tour with her new show How To Be A Baddie, the follow-up to her debut show Oh No!, which won the Edinburgh Comedy Best Newcomer Award before selling out at London’s Soho Theatre and on tour around the UK.
