Ahir Shah: Work in Progress
2023 Edinburgh Comedy Award winner Ahir Shah is one of the fastest-rising comedians of his generation and is known for his sharp, intellectual brand of stand-up featuring a blend of philosophical inquiry, political vigour and sweet gags. Ahir is a regular on television and radio and has performed stand-up on Live At The Apollo and seen on Have I Got News For You, QI, Frankie Boyle’s New World Order, Mock the Week, The Mash Report and Rob Beckett’s Undeniable.
Internationally, Ahir has played to sell out audiences at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Adelaide Fringe and Just for Laughs Montreal and has toured across Europe and India. In 2023 Ahir returned to the Edinburgh Fringe with 'Ends', which won the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show (and was first previewed at the Players!)
