How to get tickets to Munya Chawawa’s first-ever live tour
The comedian is hopping out of our screens and into our gig venues for his first live tour. Here’s how you can bag tickets.
If you see Munya Chawawa pop up on your social media feed, you know you’re about to see a laugh out loud video.
Whether he’s portraying one of his hilarious characters, such as posh drill rapper Unknown P or the ‘Caribbean chef’ Johnny Oliver, or performing in sketches about popular culture moments or current news stories (his most recent one being Matt Hancock releasing a music single live from the I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! jungle), there’s one thing Chawawa excels at - committing to the role. So, it's no surprise he's the latest comedy star announced to appear in Prince Andrew: The Musical.
Chawawa rose to fame during the COVID pandemic with his (or, rather, Unknown P’s) Fire in the Booth freestyle.
You might also recognise Chawawa from TV shows like Celebrity MasterChef. He showed off his culinary skills on the program, but was unfortunately eliminated first from the show.
A career as a chef may not have been Chawawa’s calling, but comedy and presenting definitely is. He’s currently competing in the 14th season of the comedy series Taskmaster, and most recently fronted the documentary Munya Chawawa: How to Survive a Dictator, which shows the comedian exploring the life of Zimbabwe's dictator Robert Mugabe.
Our favourite series, however, is Deep Issue Massage, where Chawawa chats to other celebrities, such as Jordan Stephens of Rizzle Kicks, about what’s on their mind. Race Around Britain — a road trip with a difference as Chawawa discovers what Britain actually knows about black culture — is a close second.
Now, Chawawa is coming to us live in the flesh. Speaking about the tour, he said: "I’m finally heading off your screens and into your cities for my first live tour! Set those reminders."
