Trevor Noah, the former host of The Daily Show, played six nights of all-new stand-up at the Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith.
Trevor Noah, who hosted The Daily Show for seven years, played six nights of new stand-up at the Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith from Monday 23 to Saturday 28 June 2025.
Noah was born in Johannesburg in 1984 to a Xhosa mother and a Swiss-German father, when their relationship was illegal under apartheid. His mother and grandmother raised him in Soweto.
At 21 he took a dare from friends to perform at a nightclub, and he soon left radio and acting for comedy. In 2012 he became the first South African stand-up to appear on The Tonight Show.
He joined The Daily Show as a correspondent in 2014 and succeeded Jon Stewart as host the following year. He has hosted the Grammy Awards every year since 2021.
The run was billed as all-new material, and a sixth night was added after the first five went on sale. Demand led the Apollo to bring him back for three more nights that winter.
