Jessie Thompson, Evening Standard, 18th August 2016Seven questions with... Njambi McGrath
Njambi McGrath is an incredibly powerful stand up performer because her comedy comes from a deeply personal place and she is able to turn it into something creatively stimulating and, of course, funny. Having grown up in Kenya, Njambi presents an insight into a completely different and unknown culture for many a Britain-born audience member, and this, for me, is what makes stand up comedy refreshing and exciting. McGrath brings her latest show 1 Last Dance with My Father to this year's Edinburgh Festival.
