English comedian Russell Howard, who is known for shows like 'The Russell Howard Hour' and 'Russell Howard's Good News', will be performing live in India for the first time. He will be performing in Mumbai and Bengaluru.
His current world tour, Russell Howard Live, is his fourth and biggest yet, selling more than 315,000 tickets across and more than 200 shows in multiple countries.
Speaking of his first show in India, Russell Howard said, "I am super excited to visit the wonderful cities of Mumbai and Bengaluru as I look forward to performing in India for the first time as part of my ongoing world tour. I hope the audiences enjoy my set as I prepare to unravel some of my wittiest jokes that will leave them on the edge of their seats, as the show unfolds".
The show is brought to India by DeadAnt, and is part of 'The DeadAnt Loop'. Russell also hosts the popular podcast Wonderbox and recently filmed the sixth series of The Russell Howard Hour. He has two Netflix specials, including Lubricant (2020), which helped him become the sole comedian with two of the UK's top-streamed specials.
Ravina Rawal, founder-CEO at DeadAnt has said, "The DeadAnt Loop continues to remain of immense importance at DeadAnt Live with the international culture of comedy flourishing in India. After two stunning editions, it is exciting that we now launch Russell Howard as it marks his initial performance in the country, culminating his show from across the world. We sure that the spectators will be bewildered by his performance on the night for years to end".
The British actor Howard began his acting career with the comedy-drama 'A Gert Lush Christmas' in December 2015.
On February 8, Russell will perform in Mumbai followed by a performance in Bengaluru on February 9.
