Lucky Tonight
Afreena Islam Wright
2nd July
Real Ale Classroom
In the 90’s sitcom Goodness Gracious Me, one of Nina Wadia’s many characters can make everything at home ‘with a small’ what?
For questions like this and more, join quizmaster extraordinaire (and former contestant of The Chase!) Afreena, who will put you through your paces to help her tell her story.
From the streets of Old Trafford to the coast of Chittagong, Afreena shares what it really means to be ‘British’ and ‘Bangladeshi’, whilst not really fitting into either of them…
Lucky Tonight! is an interactive and unique ‘pub quiz meets theatre show’, written and performed by Afreena Islam-Wright.
P.S. the answer is aubergine.
