Jake Lambert—one of the UK’s most exciting new comedians—is heading to the Rio Theatre with his smash-hit show The Sunshine Kid.

Described by The Telegraph as “a joke machine,” Jake Lambert’s non-stop gag-filled storytelling has made him one of the fastest-rising names in comedy. The Sunshine Kid sees Jake hilariously navigate the quirks of everyday life, his fear of being “normal,” and the all-too-familiar urge to ask strangers what breed their dogs are. Jake’s spot-on, viral online videos have amassed more than 500 million views and earned him over 650,000 Instagram followers. He has supported comedy superstar Michael McIntyre on his worldwide tour and appeared on Live At The Apollo, Comedy Central, and Dave.

As a writer, Jake has contributed to many of the UK’s top comedy shows, including The Royal Variety Performance, Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, Bake Off, and 8 Out of 10 Cats. His 2022 Edinburgh Fringe show Liminal was one of the best-reviewed shows of the festival, cementing his status as a rising star. Now, Canadian fans will have the chance to see Jake Lambert live on stage for an unforgettable night of sharp wit, rapid-fire punchlines, and laugh-out-loud comedy.
