Over recent years, Nish Kumar has become something of a divisive figure.
On one side of the political spectrum, he is lauded as ‘the smartest, and often the silliest, political comic we’ve got’ (The Guardian), while on the other, he is seen as the flag bearer for wokeness and political correctness. This is largely down to his fronting of the Mash Report, but he does not shy away from wearing his political heart on his sleeve in both his stand-up and his social media use.
Hailed as one of the top 50 stand-up comedians by both The Guardian and The Telegraph, he is back on tour with his latest politically-charged show, ‘Nish, Don’t Kill My Vibe.’ Expect jokes about climate collapse, income inequality and the emotional sensation of being a British Indian man who isn’t going to vote for a British Indian Prime Minister.
In this election year – with the country in turmoil – there’s only one comedian who can kill the mood even further.
Kumar will be killing vibes at Durham’s Gala Theatre on Friday 20th September.
Tickets, priced from £20.00 in advance, are available from galadurham.co.uk.
