This comedy favourite back on tour with a new show, following a sell-out four week West-End residency and a sold-out season at the Edinburgh Festival.

A firm favourite with his legendary performances, Omid’s stand-up awards include the Time Out Award and EMMA Award for Best Stand Up and nominated for the South Bank Award.

Omid was the winner of the Best Actor Award for his lead performance in The Infidel at the Turin Film Festival (won the previous year by Bill Murray).

The Infidel also picked up a Loaded LAFTA award for “funniest film” and was short listed for the “Peter Sellers Award” at the London Evening Standard British Film Awards.

The Guardian newspaper said: “Right now, the Iranian Djalili is probably one of the most subversive, let alone funniest, comedians around”.

And the Sunday Times said: “To carve yourself out a career as the thinking person’s Iranian comedian in this political climate takes a fine brain and a masterful way with the audience. There is no question that Omid Djalili possesses both.”

To join in the laughter, book your tickets now as they are selling fast.
