Personality Hire with Ty Ngachira

Personality Hire is Ty Ngachira?s newest stand-up comedy show, a sharp and thoughtful exploration of the personalities we adopt, discard, and perform in order to exist in modern society. Regarded as one of the most compelling comedians working in Nairobi today, Ty brings his trademark intelligence and observational depth to the stage, unpacking human behavior with wit, nuance, and unapologetic honesty. Audiences will recognize his voice from the acclaimed television satire series Too Much Information With Ty, where his commentary and comedic restraint earned him a loyal following. In Personality Hire, Ty moves beyond satire and into a more personal, layered performance, blending insight, self-reflection, and expertly crafted humor. The result is comedy that is deliberate, resonant, and effortlessly funny. Experience Personality Hire live at Suave Kitchen & Social Club, an intimate setting designed for conversations, connection, and world-class comedy.
