Berk’s Nest in association with United Agents are utterly thrilled (and terrified) to announce that two-time Emmy award nominee and star of Ted Lasso Nick Mohammed’s beloved alter ego Mr. Swallow is getting set to tour the UK for the first time with ‘Nick Mohammed presents The Very Best & Worst of Mr. Swallow’.
Tickets go on sale Friday 28th October at 10 am and are available from berksnest.com/nick. Fans can sign up now for first access to tickets on 27th October using the same link.
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 frist 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: “Given the somewhat turbulent times we’re living in right now, I’ve decided it’s probably best I go on a national tour. Thank you in advance to everyone (in the country) for coming along. One of the things I’m most proud of is how my ‘material’ seems to resonate with both teenagers all the way up to the elderly and infirm, so frankly anyone can get it (like a virus). Looking forward to seeing/shouting at you soon”
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!
Aside from Mr. Swallow, Nick Mohammed is a two-time Emmy-nominated actor, comedian and writer who stars as the regular fan-favourite role of Nate in Apple TV+’s smash-hit, multi award-winning series – Ted Lasso – opposite Jason Sudeikis, Brett Goldstein and Hannah Waddingham. Seasons One and Two were hugely critically acclaimed, showered with awards and nominations and beloved by audiences globally. Season Three is currently filming and set to be released early next year. The show recently received an astonishing 20 Emmy nominations (the most for a comedy and the second year they’ve achieved that) including Nick’s second nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Comedy Series.
