Introducing AUNTIE; Dame Edna meets Nollywood meets Hyacinth Bouquet via the fictional pan-African nation of Kengeria.
Auntie vocalises her disdain for tracksuits and chicken shops, which are far from her ‘Ey! Ey!’ glossy mag dreams of sipping champagne in Buckingham Palace.

This fresh new comedy explores the poignant issues of immigration, post-colonialism, gentrification, and of course, worship
