Famous comedian, Tremor Noah, was forced to cancel his shows in Bengaluru’s tech city over technical issues, the comedian said. The show cancellation left many people disappointed and fumed about the poor management including Biocon co-founder Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw. Noah was to perform at the Manpho Convention Centre in the city on 27 and 28 September as part of his ‘Off the Record’ tour.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the Biocon chairperson called Trevor Noah’s show cancellation a ‘blot on Bangalore’s tech image.’ In her post, he also added that Convention Centre where his show was scheduled ‘has much to introspect’

On 27 September, he took to X and wrote, “Dear Bengaluru India, I was so looking forward to performing in your amazing city but due to technical issues we’ve been forced to cancel both shows.”
Giving reasons the cancellation, Noah added, “We tried everything but because the audience can’t hear the comedians on stage there’s literally no way to do a show. We’ll make sure all ticket holders receive a full refund and again I’m so sorry for both the inconvenience and disappointment this has never happened to us before.”
