It’s been 5 years since the no-nonsense, outspoken, Aunty Shamilla entered the world alongside her son, Prev. Over the years they have shared ground-breaking experiences together and achieved global accolades for their clever banter and humour surrounding the stereotypical Indian, mother-son dynamic they famously share.
Now, entering his late 20’s, Prev has realised that he is still a Mummy’s Boy! Something he just cannot seem to escape no matter how hard he tries.
Therefore, in 2023, Prev Reddy presents his 4th one man show – MUMMY’S BOY!
From living alone, to finding out Madea has been related to the Royal Family. Prev hilariously takes audiences through what it’s like navigating life in a post-covid / post- Queen Elizabeth world as the ‘Mummy’s Boy’ he is – BUT, this time, there is a plot twist… his alter-ego, Aunty Shamilla will be gracing the stage on this tour, for what will be her farewell performance.
This tour highlights all Prev’s achievements in his career up to this point, where he has always shared the spot light with his alter-ego, Aunty Shamilla (who portrays his mom).
Even though Prev and Aunty Shamilla have their own audiences, Prev has always found himself sharing a spotlight with her. As Prev is maturing in his career and artistry he has taken the decision to re-introduce himself as just, PREV, post this tour. Having said that, in true Aunty Shamilla fashion, she will not be leaving quietly, this tour will be something her fans will appreciate and will definitely remember for years to come!
Shedding the Aunty Shamilla character is bittersweet but Prev believes the world is ready to be introduced to the real – PREV REDDY. We cannot wait to see what he has in store for us and even though this will be the last time we get to see Aunty Shamilla, Prev will always be a … MUMMY’S BOY!
