Summary
Mia Almas has a secret. By day, she works as a media fact checker, and by night, she takes to the stages of New York City comedy clubs. She holds herself back in a lot of ways, until Phaedra, her stylish new neighbor, inspires Mia to take a few risks. As Mia pursues a forbidden romance with her boss, her standup gets better and bolder, leading to a surprise spotlight that exposes her secret gig. Worried that her rebellious act could mean big consequences for her reserved Palestinian-American family, Mia frantically dives into damage control. But all of her efforts to pull back from the spotlight expose a family scandal from the 1940s that could change everything.
