    Dubai is getting back into show business – or at least the live entertainment business. Forget Zoom calls or other device-based connections. After a four-month hiatus, necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, artistes across the emirates are heading back to the stage. This weekend, the Junction reopens its doors with a steady stream of treats that will have you in fits of giggles. Here’s what’s on the menu. Image Credit:

    Salman Qureshi
    July 16: 'The Hot Fries'. A line-up of stand-up and improvisational comedy that features comics such as Salman Qureshi, Rushdi Rafeek, Osman Rohail and Alina Islam. “The night will be interesting because it's a blend of formats and our sole aim is to have you laughing hard by any means necessary. As comics, we've missed the laughter and there will be a lot of pent up energy that will be unleashed,” says Qureshi. Image Credit: Supplied

    Masks
    The Artistic Director and Co-Founder of The Junction, Gautam Goenka says, “We are really grateful to the support by DSS and the government of the UAE in helping us open the doors of The Junction once again. All necessary measures are in place for the shows. Therefore, we are only opening to 30 per cent of the capacity of the theatre. The audience will have to follow social distancing rules and wear their masks at all times.” Image Credit: Pexels
