2023 Sky Edinburgh Comedy Award winner Ahir Shah comes to the Royal Court with his latest hour Ends: a show about family, immigration, marriage, history, politics, and beans.
His last Fringe show, 2019’s Dots, is now a special on HBO Max. As seen on Mock the Week, The Mash Report, QI, Live at the Apollo, Frankie Boyle’s New World Order, Have I Got News For You, and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.
‘The most important stand-up of the year, if not decade’ -Stephen Armstrong
“this is truly outstanding stand up”
Evening Standard
“It’s clear why Ahir Shah won the Edinburgh Comedy Award with this remarkable piece of storytelling”
Chortle
“starts tugging heartstrings before he even sets foot on stage… has long been one of our most eloquent, thought-provoking comic voices… seemingly effortless way it weaves together the personal and the political into a big-hearted, uplifting whole”
The Telegraph
A beautiful, lyrical love letter… which deservedly picked up the Edinburgh Comedy Award this year… Shah is an electric performer, super-intelligent, his material densely packed with insight, yet never far from a gag…"
Mail on Sunday
“filled it up like a tornado sweeping in with a high energy set powered by a machine gun style delivery… great comedy set mixed up laughter, with deeply affecting silences… a master storyteller… all of this demonstrated why it was named best show at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe”
