This is a preview of the one-hour show that already received astounding reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe 2023. This year, I'm bringing it back and it needs a refresher.

About
Rizal Van Geyzel (Comedy Central Asia) was jailed for telling jokes about his own Islamic heritage. After a year under fire from right wing extremists, a hostile government and a sedition hearing, Rizal returns to the Fringe to tell his story. How it all happened, what it means for the role of comedy, and the impact it had on freedom of speech in Malaysia.
'An all-round fabulous show!' **** (One4Review.co.uk).
'A terrific comic and a wonderful storyteller!' (Scotsman).
