Reviews for Mr Swallow and the Vanishing Elephant: 

“A deliciously silly fusion of comedy and magic” **** The Stage

'This is quite the showcase for Mohammed’s mercurial talents and features the kind of ambitious stagecraft you rarely see on the Fringe. It is a proper show that justifies its big stage and red velvet curtains.'  **** i 

'an entertaining, jaw-dropping spectacle for all the family' **** Three Weeks Edinburgh 

‘This is a show focused on immersing and entertaining the audience, made even better by the fact that Mohammed himself is visibly immersed in and entertained by his character throughout the performance’  **** Edinburgh Festival Magazine 

"Audiences can't help but fall in love with Mr Swallow." **** I Talk Telly 

“spirited, opinionated, and consistently hilarious” and “the audience is amazed and amused in equal part”  Exeunt Magazine 

Mr Swallow and the Vanishing Elephant was been named as one of The Guardian's 'Best Shows at the Edinburgh Festival 2018' 

In 2017, Nick's live show Mr. Swallow - Houdini received phenomenal critical acclaim and completed a sellout 6-week run at the Soho Theatre in 2017. In early 2018, Nick returned to the Soho Theatre for a sell-out limited run in which he brought several fan-favourite characters back to the stage.
