GET KUTTI is a bicoastal South Asian comedy takeover. This variety sketch and stand-up show brings together cult favorite comedy collectives Kutti Gang (NYC) and The Get Brown (LA) for a night of sharp, silly, and subversive comedy. Hosted by stand-ups Pooja Reddy and Zubaira Ahmed, Get Kutti features original sketches and stand-up sets from some of the funniest South Asian comedians from both coasts. Expect chaos. Expect catharsis. Expect to get kutti.
KUTTI GANG:
Created by writers and comedians, Zubi Ahmed (Hulu) and Pooja Reddy (Disney), Kutti Gang spotlights South Asian, queer, and POC performers. Kutti Gang has headlined Carolines on Broadway and the New York Comedy Festival and been recommended by the New York Times, Vulture, and Time Out New York as a must-see show. The duo released their first comedy special with PBS’ All Arts network in 2019.
THE GET BROWN:
Shaan Baig, Saagar Shaikh, Kunal Dudheker, and Kausar Mohammed are founding troupe members of The Get Brown. Coming together in 2017, The Get Brown is a collaboration of six South Asian comedians (including Skander Hali & Sai Lang) who create, write, and perform on stage and in TV/film projects. As the first all-South Asian sketch show in UCB history, they became an instant phenomenon, selling out every show (30+) for all three runs and being featured in LA Weekly and LAist. Only because you asked, they also have various tv/film writing and performing credits such as: Deli Boys (Hulu/FX), Jurassic World: Chaos Theory (Netflix) , Shang-Chi (Marvel), Ms. Marvel (Disney+), The Flash (CW), Hacks (HBO Max), and most importantly — an Oscar-winning Walmart commercial.
