Tez Ilyas
Tez Ilyas is one of the most celebrated stars in British comedy. His debut hour TEZ Talks delivered a sell-out run at the Soho Theatre and his own Radio 4 series. His follow-up Made in Britain sold out every Edinburgh Fringe performance before a packed national tour. His special Teztify was recorded live at the Southbank Centre.
On screen: Live at The Apollo, The Last Leg, Mock the Week, Man Like Mobeen, The Tez O'Clock Show (Channel 4), Kevin Hart's Live from Montreal, and more. His Channel 4 Blap Bounty remains the most watched in the strand's 10-year history. Also the author of The Secret Diary of a British Muslim Aged 13¾.
Abdullah Afzal
One of the UK's most beloved Muslim comedians, Abdullah Afzal is best known for his roles in Channel 4's award-winning Ackley Bridge and the BBC's Citizens Khan. A sharp, warm, and brilliantly relatable live performer — Abdullah has been making audiences across the country cry with laughter for years.
Farhan Solo
London-based Farhan Solo blends deadpan one-liners with razor-sharp observations on race, religion, family, and identity. First ever winner of the Top Secret Comedy Club gong show. Finalist, So You Think You're Funny? 2021. Toured with Guz Khan and Nabil Abdulrashid. One of the most exciting new voices on the UK circuit.
Prince Abdi
British-Somali comedian, actor, and writer. Prince Abdi draws on his migrant background to craft a uniquely compelling mix of storytelling, impressions, and characters. TV credits include Comedy Central, BBC Three, ITV, Channel 4, and HBO. Has toured and shared stages with Michael McIntyre, Jack Whitehall, Trevor Noah, Kevin Hart, Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, and more.
Every year, around 5,700 children become orphans every single day. Worldwide, an estimated 153 million children are growing up without one or both parents — facing poverty, hunger, disease, and a future without the safety and security every child deserves.
We all want the best for our children. A warm home. Nourishing food. Quality healthcare. An education that opens doors.
For millions of orphans around the world, these are not givens. They are luxuries out of reach.
Your ticket changes that. Every penny from this tour goes directly to the Orphan Appeal — funding sponsorship programmes that provide food, shelter, healthcare, and education to vulnerable children across the world.
This summer, let's turn laughter into love, smiles into support, and comedy into something that truly matters.
