The Purple Pill Show takes place in February.
London, let’s have a laugh. British Nigerian comedian Nabil Abdulrashid will be coming to Leicester Square Theatre. The Purple Pill show takes place on 23 and 24 February, and looks set to be an exciting event.
Nabil’s show explores the idea of trying to be a good person in the modern world. He pokes fun at life’s complexities and contradictions. During the show, he makes fun of patriarchal Nigerian culture. Plus, there are lots of funny lines – “I like white culture, I’m a big fan of Lenny Henry”.
Nabil was born in North London, England. When he was a child, he moved to Kaduna, Nigeria. As his dad was a doctor, he moved around the world. After completing a degree in Drama and Theatre, he began working as a stand-up comedian. At 25 years old, he became the youngest black comedian to perform at Hammersmith Apollo. His shows include Don’t Panic, I’m Islamic, and The Show Sho Show.
In 2020, he appeared on Britain’s Got Talent and won the judges’ vote, fast-tracking him to the semi-finals. He finished the talent show in fourth place. Over his career, he has appeared on 8 out of 10 Cats, Have I Got News For You, and Live at The Apollo.
Upcoming shows at Leicester Square Theatre include Stephen K Amon on 2 February, Richard Blackwood on 10 February, Vittorio Angelone on 10 February, Janine Harouni on 16 February, and Fin Taylor on 23 and 24 February.
