DARWIN FESTIVAL: Anisa Nandaula | You Can't Say That

Anisa Nandaula invites you to explore the hilariously complex world of being a Black girl in Australia

With a sharp wit and relatable anecdotes, Anisa reflects on her journey from Uganda to Rockhampton, where she anticipated a multicultural paradise – but instead found cows and cultural confusion. Through funny and poignant stories about cultural misunderstandings, bathroom mishaps and the struggle for acceptance, Anisa highlights the beauty of individuality and the power of laughter in overcoming life’s challenges. This is a celebration of love, identity and the unique relationships that define us.

Don’t miss this unforgettable show that promises to resonate with anyone who has ever felt out of place, offering a refreshing perspective on the complexities of life, love and belonging.

“Anisa is a must-see! Unlike any comedian you 've ever seen... unless you know another Ugandan-Australian comedian. I promise you will laugh out loud!”
Chelsea Handler
