Following a sold-out 2024 tour, acclaimed stand-up and online sensation Morgan Rees is back on the road with a hugely anticipated brand-new show.
After Morgan and his partner went on separate holidays – one to a Mathematics Forum in Coventry and the other to a Bear Party in Barcelona – a massive revelation forced Morgan to re-evaluate everything. Being banned from Great Western trains, being fired as a Naked Butler, and ghosting Paul McCartney… were they really his fault?
Has that got you hooked? Good, because that’s the only stuff appropriate enough to include in the blurb. A stand-up show about the trials and errors of falling in love and keeping the spark alive, the spiral-inducing limbo of awaiting a diagnosis, and the experience of being a white Welsh valley boy integrating into a proud Gujarati family. Oh, he’s got plenty to talk about.
As well as garnering millions of views online and rave-reviews for his live shows, Morgan has supported Joanne McNally, Rhys James and Jayde Adams on tour, appeared as a finalist in the BBC New Comedy Awards, and hosts hit podcasts My Bad and Chatting With Cherubs alongside Josh Jones and Gearóid Farrelly.
