Actor & comedian Romesh Ranganathan is beloved nationally for his acerbic, deadpan standup, featured on Live at the Apollo, as well as his many appearances on panel shows such as Have I Got News For You, Mock the Week & Would I Lie to You.

In more recent years, Ranganathan has attracted wide acclaim for travel shows such as The Misadventures Of Romesh Ranganathan (which won the BAFTA TV award for Best Features), his own comedy panel show The Ranganation (also BAFTA-winning) – and as of late last year became the new host of the revived The Weakest Link.

Now, after a sell-out 2022 tour, Romesh is back with another new standup show – Hustle. Examining the truths of the human condition – from hustle culture, to the inherent moral virtue of humanity – the touring show is packed with brand new material with a witty, deadpan & philosophical bent.

Speaking of brand-new, the show is also being performed at the all-new Bristol Beacon. After multiple years of reworks and £130 million in funding, the Beacon is set to finally re-open this November (read more on that here) – and Hustle will be part of their opening stable of shows.

Ranganathan’s previous tour, The Cynic’s Mixtape, was sold-out and widely acclaimed, even culminating in a Netflix special of the set filmed in his hometown of Crawley. This tour is sure to be no different in popularity or in quality and, who knows, maybe even be filmed.

Hustle will come to the Bristol Beacon on Saturday 23 March, and starts at 20:00. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, Friday 24 February, and can be bought here.

Don’t wait – ticket like these are often hotly anticipated, and are first-come, first-serve, so don’t miss out!
