Following his Biggest Award in Comedy nominated debut and subsequent hit tour, multi-award-winning comedian and junior doctor Michael Akadiri arrives in Edinburgh 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.
