Nick Mohammed Adds New Date to THE VERY BEST & WORST OF MR. SWALLOW Tour

Two-time Emmy award nominee and star of Ted Lasso Nick Mohammed's beloved alter ego, Mr. Swallow is adding another extra date to his first ever UK tour. Having sold out across the UK, 'Nick Mohammed presents The Very Best & Worst of Mr. Swallow' will now have an additional matinee performance on May 21st at the Duke Of York's Theatre.

Tickets are on sale now and are available from berksnest.com/nick.

Mr. Swallow is one of the country's most popular/irritating comedy creations from Nick Mohammed - one of the UK's most celebrated comedians, actors and writers. Nick has received feverish critical acclaim for his live character comedy work and has transferred the success of Mr. Swallow to the small screen as a regular face in Dictionary Corner on Cats Does Countdown. Now, for the first time, he heads out on tour with a mix of new, old, very old, and previously unusable material.

Prepare to be dazzled in The Very Best & Worst of Mr. Swallow as Swallow attempts to solve a Rubik's cube, memorise a deck of playing cards and do some pretty horrendous maths while on roller-skates. Oh, plus the whole of Les Mis! This and countless more classic Mr. Swallow moments such as the one where he complains about eating a banana.

Mr. Swallow said: "Due to unprecedented demand (my words not yours) we have added an extra matinee at the Duke of York's on Sunday 21st May. A lot of people think that matinees are mostly for children and animals, but please don't let that put you off. Suffice to say the show has sold out everywhere else, so let's not end on a damp squib - particularly because I'm on roller-skates throughout."

Nick has wowed audiences as Mr. Swallow multiple times on Channel 4's Cats Does Countdown, with clips of his performances quickly going viral. Viewing figures for the clip of Mr. Swallow's rendition of Jurassic Park stand at over 9 million on Facebook whilst the clip of him memorising a deck of playing cards has been viewed over 12 million times!
