Sameera Bhalotra Bowers: What Is Going On? WIP
Date:
Time:
Venue: Museum of Comedy
Sameera’s mum was proud when she graduated with a degree in Economics from Cambridge. Less so when she went to clown school. Now Sameera needs to find a job. On LinkedIn, she is a “changemaker, global innovator and value-driven impact leader.” But in life, she has no idea what she’s doing.
In this multimedia comedy hour, Sameera attempts to navigate this absurd world. She searches for clarity through psychic guidance, grapples with the science of perfectly spherical cows, plots her rise as the leader of an Indian tutoring empire and wants to make her grandma proud. If all else fails, she plans to become the first 22-year-old living in an old-age nursing home.
Sameera was a member of the Cambridge Footlights in 2025 and trained at École Philippe Gaulier clown school in France in 2026. Her show What Is Going On? enjoyed sell-out runs at both Camden Fringe and Brighton Fringe in 2025 and 2026, receiving critical acclaim. She also performed in the 5-star, award-winning comedy play Penelope Quadrangle at the Edinburgh Fringe, in which critics called her performance “genius” (Varsity).
She now brings a new work-in-progress version of What Is Going On? to London.
