Iman Ahmedani and Stuti Johri: This Wasn’t The Plan

21/09/2025 @ Aces and Eights Saloon Bar
Doors: 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Price: £5

Our show is a tapestry of our experiences as women of colour in our early 30s — navigating identity, illness, love, and the messy art of self-acceptance, one failure at a time. Iman (@imanilaughs) is a psychiatrist-turned-comedian who can’t drive, won’t run, and once developed a deeply questionable tap dancing habit. From accidental real estate disasters to unintentionally faking a pregnancy for social reasons, her life is a parade of chaos, confusion and unexpected fame. Whether she is navigating strange incidents at work, using the love languages quiz as couples therapy or failing to recognise people she’s definitely met, Iman turns her misadventures into brutally honest, self-deprecating storytelling – sharp, hilarious and just a little unhinged.

Stuti (@stutijohri_) is a rising comedic voice serving sharp cultural commentary with a generous dose of self-deprecating wit. Navigating turning 30, gym guilt, Instagram milestones, chaotic weddings, and the quirks of cross-cultural life, she champions radical self-acceptance with both heart and hilarity. Whether she’s ranking brides like it’s a sport or casually unpacking her health issues on stage, Stuti brings a millennial desi lens to life’s absurdities — with candour, charm, and zero patience for LinkedIn energy.
