Anna Piper Scott: Such An Inspiration
Edgy, funny, uplifting, transgressive, witty, confrontational, caring, hilarious, inspiring, dangerous - how can one comedian be so many things? Acclaimed stand-up Anna Piper Scott is back with a controversial hour of comedy about comedy - about how much she loves it, and about how much it hurts her.
Such An Inspiration is a show about court jesters, Dave Chappelle and how annoying it is to transition and still have to have an opinion about sport. It's a rollercoaster hour of comedy that you won't forget.
She's a lot of things to a lot of people - who will she be to you? Are you ready to find out?
