Alexey Shcherbakov, one of the most famous stand-up comedians in Russia, has found himself in a difficult situation: his tour schedule has lost all concerts in the country, and a planned performance in Moscow, for which almost all tickets were sold, was unexpectedly canceled. This information was spread by the Telegram channel Mash.

According to the public's data, Shcherbakov had a performance scheduled at the "Moscow" concert hall in early April. However, despite the high interest, the announcement of the show disappeared from the website without any explanations. In recent years, the number of his concerts in Russia has significantly decreased, and there are currently no performances listed in the regions on his official website. For comparison, in 2024, the resident of ChBD toured in 33 cities, including major venues in Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, while in 2025, the number of concerts was halved, which he compensated for with a world tour.

Mash links the disappearance of the comedian's concerts to his recent visit to Kazakhstan, where at the premiere of a film in Almaty, Shcherbakov stated that he "came to see a friend." Although specific names were not mentioned, everyone understood that it referred to Nurlan Saburov, who recently received a 50-year entry ban to Russia. However, information regarding whether they met in person has not been officially confirmed.

Additionally, it is reported that the show "What Happened Next" may move to Kazakhstan due to issues with Saburov, a refusal to register a trademark, and the convenient location for viewers who cannot visit Russia due to their status as foreign agents.
