Too Queer is an event held monthly at the Corset Club on Virginia Street.  the event is hosted by the enigmatic Tia Rey.  

 

Zaheer Sadiq was the first comedian to take the stage and regaled the audience with stories from his life as being an unmarried son of Pakistani immigrants living in a society with very different expectations from those of his parents.  

 

Stevie Mitchell took the audience back to the 1980s with stories of when he was an apprentice in Glasgow and when HR departments were not as 'woke' as they are now.  

​

​​​Hitesh Rathore was up third and his unique style fused clever wordplay with relatable anecdotes, giving his comedic perspective on life in Scotland working in a stereotypical IT job with diversions to nightlife in Dundee and encounters with the denizens of that city. 

​

​​Vanessa Correia was the penultimate act and like Hitesh is a newcomer from India, however her background is Catholic Christian and therefore is not bound by the rules of the Hindu majority and her comedy draws on the different attitudes to beef coming from a country where cows are sacred. 

​

​The show was headlined by Liam Farrelly, a young up and coming Scottish comedian from Paisley who is now 4 years into his comedy career.  His comedy draws on being a very young parent which isn't typical for someone his age and contrasts himself with his childless peers and their very different lives.  

 

The audience received all the acts enthusiastically and helped to make the show a great success!
