Comic takes her Prawn Cocktail show to Mumbai and Bengaluru

Olga Koch is heading back to India later this month, taking her latest show Prawn Cocktail to Mumbai and Bengaluru.

It follows the Russian-born, British-based comic’s debut in Mumbai last year.

She said: ‘I’m delighted to be coming back, as my time in India last year was undoubtedly the highlight of my year. I'm eager to meet more new audiences, see more fantastic acts, and stay up late on Marine Drive.’

Her return to India is part of Soho Theatre’s cultural exchange - bringing some of the best Indian comedy to the UK, and UK and international comedy to India. This has included Mumbai runs for Shaparak Khorsandi, Nina Conti, Lauren Pattison, and Ahir Shah.

Prawn Cocktail revolves around Koch’s adult gap year, taken after she turned 30 and got a master's degree. Read our four-star review of the show from last year’s Edinburgh Fringe .

Koch performs at The Habitat, Mumbai on Friday 19 and Saturday 20 January, and at Just BLR Comedy Club, Bengaluru on Sunday 21 January.  Tickets are on sale now.
