Romesh Ranganathan returns to the stage with his stand-up show 'Will Change Your Life' at the Regent Theatre.
Romesh Ranganathan brings his new stand-up show, Will Change Your Life, to the Regent Theatre on Sunday 7 February 2027. It's a solo night, and the title does most of the heavy lifting — the show is billed as being 'scientifically proven to improve your self-esteem'.
He's leaning into the joke from the start: the tagline claims that simply standing next to his tour poster will boost your attractiveness to potential lovers, and that during the set he'll teach the audience how to bottle up their feelings and pour them out to strangers. It's a good indicator of the tone — self-deprecating, dry, and not taking itself too seriously.
If you're not already familiar with him, Ranganathan has been a fixture of the UK comedy circuit for a while. He was nominated for best newcomer at the 2013 Edinburgh Festival and has since become one of the country's best-known comedy voices. He's a regular on TV and radio panel shows like 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Would I Lie To You and BBC Radio 4's The Museum of Curiosity, and he hosts his own BBC Radio 2 show. He also puts out two podcasts, Hip-Hop Saved My Life and Wolf & Owl.

Beyond the panel shows, he's written and starred in his own series for the BBC, Sky and Dave. Among them is the docu-comedy Asian Provocateur, which looks at his Sri Lankan roots, and The Ranganation, his current-affairs talk show. Will Change Your Life is his latest stand-up tour, and it lands at the Regent Theatre in Stoke-on-Trent on Sunday 7 February 2027.
