Michael Akadiri
Following his Biggest Award in Comedy nominated debut and subsequent hit tour, multi-award-winning comedian and junior doctor Michael Akadiri arrives in Bristol with his sophomore show, Trust Me I’m a Daddy.
Get your mind out of the gutter - Not that sort of daddy!
He’s merely become a father.
“The supremely talented and likeable” (Metro) Michael has long juggled comedy & Medicine but now he’s thrown parenting into the mix too. Surely, something must give?!
Join this ”‘hugely entertaining” (Chortle) comedian as he navigates the real-life obstacle course of childrearing, parenting under the ‘junior doctor gaze’ and ultimately the true sacrifices required of a daddy.
As seen on Comedy Central LIVE, ITVs Stand Up Sketch & Channel 4s Stand Up to Cancer.
As heard on Capital Xtra’s Breakfast Show, BBC Radio 4’s Loose Ends & Times Radio.

FYI:
We have noticed an increasing number of scams / fake tickets for our events recently (especially purchased from social media). We do our best to monitor our social media pages and delete posts from scam ticket sellers, but some still manage to slip the net as we are a small team and do not have the capacity to constantly monitor all of our event pages on social media.
We never accept tickets purchased from unofficial ticket agents or social media platforms.
If an event is sold out – we can refund ticket holders wanting to return tickets provided we have a guaranteed buyer on the waiting list and it is before Friday 12pm on the weekend of the event. Therefore there is never a need to buy from anywhere except for official ticket selling sites (our website, Headfirst, Seetickets. Ticketsellers, Skiddle, Eventbrite or any site that is linked on our website for the event). If in doubt, please contact us before making any purchases.
