PHILADELPHIA, PA, UNITED STATES, September 12, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Opening this week: a provocative brew of physical comedy, absurdism and American naivety invites you onto an imaginative and fanciful ride, presented by award-winning comedian Amrita Dhaliwal. Perpetual fabrication and buried social commentary are revealed with effervescent zing and cheeky sassiness in Driving Around. A show full of insights into what unites us and separates us, the host takes you on a ride that is so far past stupid that it becomes compelling.

Dhaliwal brings ‘hilarious clowning skills’**** (Wee Review) by mixing ‘absurdist techniques, clowning and slapstick”**** (The List Review). And ‘an abundance of gaggery and tomfoolery… with impeccable timing and control’ **** (Theatre People Review, Melbourne).

Limited Run: Sept 14-16, The Living Room, Fidget Space
***RECOMMENDED AGES 13+***
