Ten years ago, reigning comedian's comedian Sid Singh did his first-ever hour-long show. It went horribly. At the end, a 10-year-old child walked over to him and said: 'Don't worry, one day you'll find out you're good at something'. This is a brand-new show about American colonialism, British Taco Bell and mediocre Indian ancestors, all with the greatest, most noble aim of all: to prove that dumbass kid wrong. 'Non-stop laughs' ***** (TheatreWeekly.com). 'This is a great show. Very, very funny' **** (Scotsman).

Funny At The Fringe - Sid Singh: American Coloniser

"My show is a huge experiment! I wanted to create a show that speaks directly to progressive activists, moderate middle class audience members, disaffected minority groups, apathetic voters, and um you know, make it extremely funny!"

As a comedian Sid performs at comedy clubs, festivals and on TV around the world. As a human rights lawyer he has helped the Center for Gender and Refugee Studies defeat the Trump administration in court. Tick. And tick.
