The Debut stand up hour from Aarian Mehrabani
Co-Writer and Creator of the multi award winning play "It's A MotherF**king Pleasure"
Aarian is a triple threat. Brown, Blind and Bi. Arguably already too many things to talk about in a debut stand up hour.
Then 2024 came, and he only had to go and get f**king brain cancer.
The highly anticipated debut show from critically acclaimed, multi award-winning Writer and Comedian Aarian Mehrabani, co-writer and actor of the 2023 smash hit play “It’s a MotherF**king Pleasure”. Set to premier at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2026.
“"Aarian Mehrabani has naturally perfect comedic timing, and left me genuinely winded with laughter a couple of times...Pure genius...as close to perfection as you can get"
– Binge Fringe
"entirely charming...Funny, chaotic and wincingly relevant."
- The Spy in the Stalls
"hilarious and incisive"
- Playbill
"Ridiculously entertaining."

Thank Yous
The Lowry team. Particularly Antonia and Grace for being the first ones to have faith in me and my ability to transition into stand up
The Soho Theatre team for being so generous with their time and providing me invaluable advice and support. Particular thanks to David, Max and Lee.
Kyle Walace at G&B Comedy for providing an amazingly supportive room for me to try out and hone my material.
Of course, my Mum and Dad for their unwavering support and endless lifts to and from gigs.
And Tom, my friend from high school who may not remember. But in a conversation in the canteen in year 9, he made the audacious statement that he thought I’d be a great stand up comedian. Planting the seed in my head that resulted in all this.
Thank you so much to these legends who came to my flat, sat alone on my sofa, and let me perform the show for them
