Nick Mohammed to play Mr Swallow in new 2025 UK tour ‘Show Pony’

Ted Lasso & Taskmaster star Nick Mohammed is going back on tour in 2025 playing his character Mr Swallow, in Nick Mohammed is Mr Swallow: Show Pony.

Show Pony has been described by Mr Swallow as “payback for everyone who didn’t come to the last tour” and will cover everything from not having his own sitcom, to not having his own sitcom… and everything in between (critical race theory)!

As per previous Mr Swallow shows, including a 2023 residency at Soho Theatre, expect magic, music and a whole load of brand-new mistakes.

Nick Mohammed is one of the UK’s most celebrated comedians, actors and writers. Previous Mr Swallow shows include Dracula, Houdini and A Christmas Carol-ish… alongside his first UK tour The Very Best & Worst of Mr. Swallow.

Nick Mohammed said in a statement: “Once bitten, twice shy! It is with the deepest pride that I subject the nation to another bout of Mr Swallow. And this time, I won’t even be doing the whole thing on roller-skates!”

Producers of the show said: “After a sell-out UK tour and extended run in London’s West End in 2023, Taskmaster loser Nick Mohammed returns as his critically acclaimed alter-ego Mr Swallow with a brand-new show, Show Pony, from April – June 2025.”

Tickets are on general sale on Friday 26 July 2025.

Ahead of the tour, Nick Mohammed is Mr. Swallow: Work In Progress is set to play London’s Soho Theatre from 16 to 20 September 2024, for a residency of work in progress as he builds towards the new tour.
