Comedian, Nish Kumar, will be coming to the South West next month as part of his brand new UK tour.

The double Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee has announced the brand new tour for 2022 with highly anticipated live show, Your Power, Your Control.

Nish will be appearing at the Corn Exchange in Exeter on Monday, 9 May.

He has achieved huge success on the stand-up circuit with five rave reviewed solo stand-up shows at the Edinburgh Fringe, two of which have been nominated for the prestigious Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show in both 2015 and 2016.

Nish said: “It has been a period of upheaval and uncertainty with COVID and the political situation. You will be amazed by my capacity to somehow take all these things personally."
