Tez Ilyas brings his third stand up show to Edinburgh following the successes of his critically acclaimed debut, TEZ Talks (2015), and his follow-up smash hit, Made in Britain (2016).
His debut Edinburgh show, TEZ Talks, transferred to BBC Radio 4 for a full series, and has already been re-commissioned for a second.
In 'Teztify' feels like he’s constantly on trial. In his new show, he’s decided to teztify against all the assumptions the world has of him.
Some are on the surface: he’s Asian; some, he’s never run from: he’s a working-class man of faith; and some he’s worn on his sleeve: he’s a total lefty liberal.
However, Tez also holds some pretty unpopular opinions and because he’s on trial, he’s prepared to confess these: why does he hate cover songs, science and pets?
Did he really murder a chicken at the age of 10?! And just why is he so glad that Donald Trump won?
