Omid Djalili is coming back to the UAE with a new show. The British-Iranian comedian, who is one of the original and best when it comes to cross-cultural laughs, performs at MusicHall at Jumeirah Zabeel Saray, Palm Jumeirah, on May 9. What to expect: themes of “overcoming your fears, relationships, the perils of celebrity and getting older”.
“A lot of men in their forties try to do things to prove themselves. For me it was a choice of going on tour, learning to ride a unicycle or understanding Judaism,” says Djalili.
Tickets, Dh195, Dh295 and Dh495 at www.platinumlist.net; the show starts at 7pm.
