Known for his forthright take on big issues, the set sees Daliso take a look at the disgraced celebrities and historical figures that we’re ashamed we once admired.

Having appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and supported comedians including John Bishop, the Malawian stand-up drew acclaim with a successful stint on Britain’s Got Talen in 2017, in which he finished third.
