EXCLUSIVE: Rising British comic Jake Lambert has announced a spring 2027 U.S. leg expanding his The Sunshine Kid Tour with Outback Presents.
This comes following sold-out shows across 20 countries, including the UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Lambert has also drummed up major demand for his upcoming Nov. 13 headlining show at the New York Comedy Festival, which sold out in under three hours.
Lambert told Deadline, “I’m so excited to be bringing my show to the States, and not just because it’s the only country where my accent is seen as exotic. Getting to tour America as a British comic is a genuine dream come true. I’ve heard you could all do with a laugh, so I’ll be bringing my best jokes, and also my own tea bags.”
Tickets to Lambert’s U.S. shows go on sale to the public Friday, Nov. 13 at 10 a.m. local. View his list of dates below.
With 1.2 million followers and more than 750 million views across social platforms, Lambert has appeared on the BBC’s Live at the Apollo, Comedy Central’s Live from the Comedy Store and UKTV’s Rosie Jones’s Disability Comedy Extravaganza. On the road, he has supported comedy heavyweights including Michael McIntyre, Jack Dee, Romesh Ranganathan and Kerry Godliman on arena and theatre tours around the world.
A seasoned comedy writer, Lambert’s credits span some of the UK’s biggest shows, including The Ranganation, The Royal Variety Performance, The Apprentice: You’re Fired, Bake Off: An Extra Slice, Mock the Week, 8 Out of 10 Cats and Netflix’s Flinch, among others. Lambert also hosts the podcast Had Worse Mondays, with new episodes released weekly. He is represented by Off The Kerb and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.
