Mina Liccione is a comedian and performer who makes her home in Dubai. Her homecoming show at the Rochester Fringe Festival is called “Growing Up Ringside,” which is her journey from 1980’s Rochester in an Italian-American household, to Dubai, but at its core is the relationship between her and her dad, a boxing promoter.

The show hits Rochester Fringe Festival September 24 at 9pm, and Saturday 25 at 7pm. Tickets can be found here. Mina was rated “Funniest People in 2012” by Rolling Stone Magazine, is a two time nominee for “Best Female Personality” by Ahlan Magazine and was awarded “Most Inspiring Woman” in the UAE by Philly Arabia and UN Women.
