Perth Fringe Festival Focus: The Art Of The Dil
Answered by: Dilruk Jayasinha
Show: The Art Of The Dil
Describe your show in a tweet? An hour of jokes and funny stories that navigate through fears such and homophobia, Islamaphobia and Tinderphobia.
Who will your show appeal to? It's easier for me to answer who it would NOT appeal to. Anyone upset by the swear words will hate it. Those that are close minded when it comes to political issues will be annoyed. And babies will be bored.

What's your creative process? How do you develop your ideas? I jot down a funny idea or story in my notebook and try them out at an open mic gig. I keep the ones that work and tweak those that don't. Repeat until I have an hour of new stand-up.
What will make you stand out in the Fringe crowd? I have a boisterous laugh that some find endearing but others find annoying. That combined with my Sri Lankan heritage and being 20kgs overweight does set me apart from the rest fairly well.
When and where is your Fringe show? I'm on from Feb 8 - 11 at 9.15pm at the State Library
