Simba Rabsha

When Simba Rabsha steps up to the mic, something electric happens—his quick-fire delivery and razor-sharp self-reflection hit you before you've even settled into your seat. This Somali-born London comic doesn't just tell jokes; he weaponises everyday observations into hilarious narratives that leave audiences gasping for air between laughs.

Since storming the capital's comedy scene, Simba's been collecting gong show victories like they're going out of fashion. He conquered the notorious Top Secret Gong Show in November 2022, smashed Big Belly's Ding Dong Show that September, and earned his place as a Max Turner Prize finalist the same year. But the real coup? Winning the legendary Comedy Store King Gong in May 2024—a feat that cemented his reputation as one of London's most exciting rising talents.

His unique fusion of observational comedy and storytelling has seen him grace stages from JK Comedy Club to the Comedy Store, and he's been a favourite on the Comedy Boat since 2024, bringing that same unpredictable energy to every Rum Monkey set. With television and radio appearances already under his belt and an ability to connect with any crowd, Simba's trajectory is pointing straight up. Catch him while you still can.
