2019 Edinburgh Fringe
Maria Shehata: Hero
Failed love, crippling debt and living with an angry 83-year-old. Not exactly what Maria had in mind when she left LA for the UK. 'A slick, gag-driven US-approach' (Chortle.co.uk). 'A charming, engaging storyteller' (BroadwayWorld.com). 'I love Maria Shehata' (Bill Burr).
