Taskmaster star Fatiha El-Ghorri is extending her first ever stand-up tour again.
And while she’s currently out an already-extended tour of the debut show ‘Cockney Stacking Doll’, El-Ghorri has now added a further 19 shows across the UK in 2027, due to exceptional demand.
Tickets for the newly-announced tour extension dates are on general sale now, at offthekerb.com and fatihaelghorri.co.uk.
El-Ghorri said: “Touring my first show has been fantastic! The first leg was amazing, I’m just starting up the second leg and I’ve loved it so much that we’re now releasing tickets for a third leg in 2027. The audiences have been the best – who knows, at this rate I might have to do a fourth leg!”
The tour also features a handful of clean, family-friendly (12+) matinee performances of Fatiha’s show, with no swearing or themes of an adult nature – see below listings information for details of these shows.
Fatiha El-Ghorri is an award-winning Hackney-born comedian, actor and writer whose sharp, witty observations challenge stereotypes with humour rooted in her experiences as a British muslim hijabi woman, offering a fresh and fearless voice on stage.
El-Ghorri already has a seriously impressive list of TV credits under her belt, as a breakout star of series 19 of Taskmaster (C4), acting in two series of the BAFTA-winning Mr Bigstuff (Sky), as well as appearances on Live at the Apollo (BBC Two), QI (BBC Two), The Last Leg (C4), The Jonathan Ross Show (ITV), Cats Does Countdown (C4), The Great Celebrity Pottery Throw Down (C4), Unacceptable (TLC), The Russell Howard Hour (Sky), Big Zuu’s Big Eats (U&Dave), Outsiders (U&Dave), The Wheel (BBC One), Guessable (Comedy Central), The Weakest Link (BBC One), Mel Giedroyc: Unforgivable (U&Dave), Out Of Order (Comedy Central), Boarders (BBC Three), Richard Osman’s House Of Games (BBC Two) and as Head Judge on the 2025 BBC New Comedy Awards (BBC Three).
She has also written and starred in her own Comedy Short for the BBC, Donkey, which was nominated for a BAFTA in 2026.
She has made numerous podcast appearances too, including Off Menu with Ed Gamble and James Acaster, Alan Carr’s Life’s A Beach, and What’s My Age Again? with Katherine Ryan.
In 2026, BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds aired a new pilot from Fatiha titled A Match Made Inshallah; a fearless, funny show where the 44-year-old, twice-divorced stand-up comedian is looking for love and ready to date - and she wants us all to be her wingman.
El-Ghorri has performed at the Royal Albert Hall, and the London Palladium alongside Lenny Henry for Comic Relief, and won the Best Debut Show award at the 2023 Leicester Comedy Festival for her Work In Progress of ‘Cockney Stacking Doll’.
Fatiha’s debut novel, The Perks of My Hijab – an empowering and hilarious tale of family and identity - is to be published by Simon & Schuster Children’s Books on 25th February 2027.
