Suchandrika Chakrabarti

I Miss Amy Winehouse

I Miss Amy Winehouse is the first solo hour from comedian Suchandrika Chakrabarti (writer on BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz, Funny Women Stage Awards semi-finalist, British Comedy Guide Pro Performance Awards finalist). It’s been 11 years since Amy Winehouse died. Suchandrika is a fan who partied the 2000s away in Camden, but never got to meet her musical hero. She’ll take you back in time to put that right. This is the comedy show that dares to ask: what makes a good memorial? Also: brush up on your favourite Amy Winehouse trivia because there will be a quiz!
