Nish Kumar : Angry Humour From a Really Nice Guy

Nish Kumar : Angry Humour From a Really Nice Guy

A major night of sharp, political stand‑up lands in Basingstoke as Nish Kumar brings his 2026 tour Angry Humour From a Really Nice Guy to The Anvil on Saturday 19 September 2026 at 7:30pm. The official event page confirms full details, including pricing, age guidance, and the show’s brilliantly chaotic premise.

Nish Kumar returns with a full-force hour of political comedy, existential dread, and self‑aware chaos. According to the official listing:
- “The world is in chaos. Inequality is widening, autocracy is rising and political parties are collapsing.”
- Nish responds with passionate, progressive stand‑up, leaning into the absurdity of modern life.
- Expect material about being 40, his “breaking mind,” his “worse body,” and the state of the nation.
It’s classic Nish: furious, funny, and unashamedly opinionated.
