Romesh Ranganathan is back with a brand-new show, The Cynic’s
Mixtape, and it’s his most brutally honest show yet. Fresh from The
Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan, A League Of Their Own
and Judge Romesh, he's putting showbiz aside to deliver a
carefully-curated selection of all the things he has found
unacceptable since his last tour, including why trying to save the
environment is a scam, why none of us are truly free, and his
suspicion that his wife is using gluten intolerance to avoid sleeping
with him. Romesh’s cynicism has become his trademark, but since
being nominated for Best Newcomer at the 2013 Edinburgh Comedy Awards
this deadpan humour has become one of Britain’s most respected and
popular comics. Now, though, it’s time for the Asian Provocateur to
return to his stand-up roots for a while – there’s things he needs
to point out, discuss and have a good moan about. Care to join him?

around him. 'Extraordinarily hilarious' (Three Weeks) 'Plenty to enjoy
in his ultra sardonic set' (Chortle) 'His ability to write bitingly
fresh gags marks him out from the crowd... Ranganathan's punchlines
are sharper and funnier than many of his peers' (The Guardian). Romesh
