Shappi Khorsandi

Shappi Khorsandi presents England’s unsung heroine, Emma, Lady Hamilton. For too many years she has been known as just Nelson’s mistress, a bit of a harlot (you get one job in a brothel and bang goes your reputation). Women’s lib wasn’t a thing in Georgian times. Emma moved mountains to haul herself from scullery maid to Lady Hamilton… and yes, she occasionally danced naked on tables to get ahead in life, but who hasn’t? As a fellow naked dancer on tables, Shappi raises a glass to the woman England betrayed.

Star of 2017’s series of ITV’s ‘I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here’, Live At The Apollo, Have I Got News for You and Q.I. Shappi Khorsandi is back on the road with her 2017 sell out Edinburgh Festival Fringe show ‘Mistress and Misfit’, travelling to 50 venues across the UK this spring, including 4 nights at London’s Soho Theatre in February and March. Please find a full list of tour dates and listings information below.
Shappi is a best-selling author having released ‘A Beginners Guide to Acting English’ in 2009, followed by her fantastic critically acclaimed debut novel ‘Nina Is Not OK’, published by Ebury in July 2016 and released in paperback in February 2017.
