Sindhu Vee: Swanky
Overview
Someone once asked Sindhu Vee a very stupid question. She wants to tell you about it.
From the award-winning star of Live at the Apollo comes a brand-new stand-up show about falling through the cracks you didn’t make, avoiding the friendships you don’t want, and embracing the self-love you definitely need.
In Swanky, Sindhu Vee is taking her “outspoken, frank and funny stand-up” (Evening Standard) across the country for her first UK tour in five years.
Since 2021’s Alphabet – now available to stream on Sindhu’s website – the Edinburgh Comedy Award-nominated comic has appeared on QI, Have I Got News For You and Would I Lie To You? as well as starring in Netflix’s Sex Education and Matilda the Musical as well as Amazon Prime’s Pradeeps of Pittsburgh and Picture This.
Now, having become one of the most exciting and sought-after comedy talents internationally, UK audiences can get ready for her most sophisticated, intimate and swanky show yet.
