Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 11th March 2021Review: Stand Up 4 Women, Phoenix Arts Club
I'm not a comedy critic. I know what makes me laugh, and also that a good laugh is what we all need right now. I disclaim this primarily because Sikisa - host of the fifth annual Stand Up 4 Women comedy gala - has no time for comedy critics: "Just don't!" she breaks off to tell everyone. However, she has nothing to fear because the night, though uneven, gives enough good laughs, and all for a very good cause.
