Naomi Mourra Sydney’s only Lebanese, lesbian, ex-Jehovah’s Witness, comedian

As Sydney’s only Lebanese, lesbian, ex-Jehovah’s Witness, comedian, Naomi Mourra grew up as a door-knocking Jehovah’s Witness and closeted lesbian to Lebanese parents in the 1980s in Cabramatta, Sydney, Australia.

 Naomi is your gateway woman to chicks, chickpeas, cults and culture.

 Her solo shows, An Open Book, debuted in 2018.

An Open Book, Naomi explores her own anecdotes as well as some of the Biblical stories you may (or may not) know and what lessons our modern world can learn from them. Like why you shouldn’t turn around, why seeds must never be spilled and why it’s really important to be articulate in a registry office.

She’s been around the block a few times and knows that when opportunity comes knocking, sometimes it’s best to pretend you’re not home and that for every door that closes another also closes.

“Laughed out loud! It was like someone holding up a mirror – which they so rarely do!” – God

Naomi who has performed in London and Sydney. She is the co-founder and co-producer of What She Said, the only weekly all women’s comedy night in Sydney. She is also in the improv troupe Shut Up Darryl, and has performed at The Factory Theatre and the Belvoir. She has trained at LMA and Second City Chicago.

Naomi NEXT show Work Hacks From The Holy Book is at the Factory Theatre, Marrickville part of the Sydney Fringe Comedy Festival 2022.

Dates are Wednesday 14 and Friday 16 September 2022 @7pm
