Following on from his acclaimed debut tour of The Pretender, Eshaan is getting ready to once again bring his unique and insightful comedy to audiences across the UK.

With this hour set to be his most impressive to date!
Having previously worked as a banker, a policy adviser, a speechwriter and a journalist, Eshaan has blown audiences away with his ability to navigate the choppy waters of the UK racial politics within his shows, making him a breakthrough act who has conquered some of the biggest stages including The O2.

He has opened for Micky Flanagan, and has supported the likes of Jason Manford, Sindhu Vee, Adam Rowe, Dan Nightingale, Kae Kurd, Tez Ilyas, Dane Baptiste, Hal Cruttenden, Jan Ravens and Rory Bremner on tour.
Eshaan Akbar said: “I’m doing another tour because it’s one way of creating more work for myself and to give you all something to do. Last tour, I played to tens and tens of you, can’t wait for it be twenties and twenties of you this time round. I can promise you, my show will be better than doing nothing - that’s a minimum guarantee. I’ve appeared in Animals Do The Funniest Things you know.”
