Revew: Margaret Cho’s ‘The Sensous Woman’

By ROB KENDT | Special to Newsday “When Cho flashes that sunny grin after a self-abasing joke about oral sex, say, it plays as an ironic gloss, a feint to smooth over any awkwardness, which somehow only makes it funnier.” It’s the proud, cheery smile that gives her away every time.
