Janine Harouni is heading off on her first ever UK tour, with her stand-up show Man'oushe.

Her promoters explain: "Harouni kicks off her tour with a week-long residency at Soho Theatre before heading to Manchester, Reading, Liverpool, Birmingham, Glasgow, Newcastle, Norwich, Leeds, Canterbury, London, Brighton and Bristol. Tickets are on sale now and available from www.janineharouni.com.

"Man'oushe, Janine's most personal show yet, delighted audiences at the Edinburgh Fringe - amassing critical acclaim and earning Janine her second Edinburgh Comedy Award nomination - all whilst 9 months pregnant. This makes Janine one of the few comedians to receive back-to-back Edinburgh Comedy Award nominations - the first in 2019 for Best Newcomer for her debut hour.

"Now the quick-witted New Yorker returns with an insightful and beautiful hour that explores her Arab roots, pregnancy and what happens when your mail order DNA test does not go to plan. This is the BBC New Comedy Award winner at her finest, entertaining audiences with hilarious and, at times, moving personal stories."

Harouni jokes: "I'm thrilled to be embarking on my first ever UK tour, and not just because it gives my nipples a break from the milk vampire that lives in my home. Or as my husband calls him 'our son'."
