Edinburgh Fringe
Njambi McGrath: Black Black
Comedian grannies, mud-floor comedy clubs, white-face audiences, broke aristocrat orgies with angry Afrikaans, soldiers in search of stiffies, African matriarchs objectifying themselves and civil disobedience are the perfect ingredients for mirth. Njambi McGrath is hot on the heels of her comedian grandmother in colonial Kenya. This is satire with a zing. The ying and yang of historical humour. Mention Kenya, one thinks of tranquil savannas, Attenborough stalking exotic animals and the rest is a fog. Fear not - Njambi is to the rescue! Njambi's hour of political comedy is the Attenborough of Kenyan history.

Fringe 2022: Njambi McGrath shares how comedy has helped her mental health
Mental health and stand-up, I don't know whether they are synonymous with one another, but both do seem to contribute something in the other.
