Shazia at Workshop with Edinburgh show

“My mum can’t find me anyone to marry. My friend Matthew who is a gay politically correct looks at me with great concern and says, ‘you’re not thinking of becoming a Jihaadi Bride are you?’,”says Shazia.

So you want to find out what she thinks about that, then you’ll need to pop along to the show which is for people aged 18+.
