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

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
