1001 Laughes: Standup Comedy Workshop/Audition

One of the reasons why I was upset to leave the UAE was because the comedy scene over there was starting to catch up and the comedy scene here - in Oman - is almost dead. And when I heard about this Comedy gig that is coming in town on the 2nd of June, I got really excited.

Muscat Comedy Club and Hi FM Muscat are presenting 1001 Laughs in Muscat on the 2nd of June and the 3rd. The gig will feature comedians Dean Obeidallah from Axis of evil, Amer Zahr from ABC TV and Nemr Abou Nassar from Showtime Arabia's "Minority Rules" Comedy special. Tickets are sold at Oua retail outlet - MQ, Crown Plaza Hotel, CONNEXIONS Store Ruwi, BOSE Showroom Qurum City Centre and HI FM - Radio House for 15 Rials.

And not only that this is a comedy gig, they will also present a workshop to teach the basics of stand up comedy - joke writing, performing, how to break into the world of stand up comedy, etc. And after the workshop, you may audition to perform as the opening act for their shows in Muscat.
All this will only happen if enough people respond to it. You may do so by massaging Dean Obeidallah on Facebook or at Dean@deanofcomedy.com and expressing your interest about the workshop. It's important that you do so if you want the workshop to go on.


If you have ever been a comedy fan and always been stuck in this country, this is your chance. Do not miss out!
