What's it like being a black woman in Australia? Ugandan-born Queenslander and standup comedian Anisa Nandaula knows all too well. Her current show You Can't Say That explores the challenges she's faced in a new country and how, on arrival, she expected a multicultural society - but instead found herself face-to-face with farm animals. She has been nominated for best newcomer at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and performs three Auckland shows for the New Zealand International Comedy Festival during May. Ahead of her Auckland gigs, Anisa Nandaula speaks with Mihi about her approach to comedy and using laughter to tackle life's challenges.
